Requirements

BA/BS degree or equivalent experience
You have a genuine passion for building internal platforms that treat the developer experience as a first-class product, ensuring web application delivery is both scalable and seamless.
You exhibit proficiency in a diverse set of programming languages such as JavaScript, TypeScript, and Python and hands-on experience with modern web technology such as React, Node.js, Tailwind.css, and frameworks such as Next.js and Remix.
You have a solid grasp of containerization and orchestration tools like Docker and Kubernetes and extensive experience designing RESTful APIs, GraphQL APIs, and integrating third-party APIs.
You have experience architecting and productionizing safe, observable, self-service agentic AI solutions for developer workflows including driving CI/CD throughput improvements, and establishing usage and governance telemetry.
You possess a deep understanding of monorepo management, including the design and architectural patterns required to maintain performance and developer sanity at scale.
You can navigate the trade-offs between Developer Experience (DX) and platform-native technologies, ensuring our stack (JavaScript, TypeScript, React, etc.) remains both modern and maintainable.
You have a proven track record of implementing safe deployment patterns (e.g., canary, blue/green) and automated rollback capabilities to ensure high availability.
You are committed to establishing "paved paths" and self-service capabilities that allow teams to bundle, build, and deploy code—both within and outside the monorepo—with minimal friction.
You effectively connect the dots across multiple engineering teams, collaborating with senior leaders to architect high-quality solutions that balance speed with security and stability.
You are committed to cultivating an inclusive team culture and mentoring other engineers to foster a high-performance, continuous-learning environment.
Stay curious and open to growth — actively building fluency in emerging technologies like AI to unlock creativity, accelerate progress, and amplify impact.
