  • Partner with the Engineering Director for Customer Operations and other ICs to provide technical leadership around resiliency across Monzo
  • Build a deep understanding of our customer journeys and infrastructure and then work to strengthen the infrastructure and tooling to build consistent experiences at scale; enhancing the tools, patterns and guardrails that make high-quality customer experience choices the easy ones
  • Work collaboratively with product, data and operational leaders to identify and execute on opportunities that further the organisation's goals and strategy, bringing the right level of clarity, urgency and rigour as appropriate.
  • Oscillate between contributing to high-level planning and strategy and organisational leadership and diving deep into the execution of problems and getting hands-on as necessary.
  • Work on solving multi-faceted optimisation problems at scale, such as how to maximise the leverage of technologies like LLMs, traditional machine learning, and efficient end to end systems.
  • Keep a high bar for technical excellence in the collective, through your own work, highlighting the work of others and calling out when things haven't quite met the bar.
  • Use your expert knowledge and experience to lead architectural discussions for the most complex systems in the collective. You’ll do this in order to arrive at solutions that are robust and optimal given the context

  • Customer focus with a platform mindset. You are naturally inclined to solve customer problems through a platform mindset that allows solutions to scale across the company.
