About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Lead delivery of more in-depth initiatives from planning through launch in partnership with product and technical leadership, where you own the technical execution.
Take on the hard parts. When a project has a complex or critical piece, you're the one writing it.
Shape architecture. Participate actively in design discussions, write design docs, and weigh tradeoffs out loud so the team can learn from your reasoning.
Mentor mid-level and junior engineers. Pair, code-review thoughtfully, and help teammates level up their skills, including their AI tooling fluency.
Drive process improvements. Spot recurring pain in the team's workflow and propose changes, not just complaints.
Push the AI-native bar. Build internal tooling, prompt patterns, and agentic workflows that make the whole team faster, not just yourself.
Be a reliable code reviewer on PRs across the team, including outside your immediate project area.
Operate cleanly on-call. Know your services in production; lead incident response when needed and write the postmortem.
