About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Design, build, and maintain systems across the stack, from frontend interfaces and APIs to backend services, databases, and infrastructure.
Rotate across squads as priorities shift, bringing your expertise to wherever it creates the most leverage, and ramping quickly in unfamiliar domains.
Evolve and optimize core systems including data models, authentication flows, API layers, and client-side architecture.
Diagnose and resolve performance, scalability, reliability, and security issues in production.
Collaborate on architecture and long-term strategy across platform, infrastructure, and product dimensions.
Implement and refine monitoring, alerting, observability, and auditing across systems.
Use AI-assisted development tools to accelerate implementation, testing, and code quality — and help establish team norms for doing so effectively.
Balance long-term engineering quality with pragmatic, high-velocity delivery.
