You will frequently operate across team boundaries, take ambiguous problems from idea to production, and lead technical initiatives that have an impact well beyond a single service or team.
We are looking for someone who combines deep backend expertise with strong execution: an engineer who can design the architecture, dive into the code, debug production systems, challenge existing assumptions, rapidly prototype new approaches, and bring others along with them.
Key Responsibilities:
Lead Critical Initiatives End-to-End - Own complex, business-critical engineering efforts from problem definition and architecture through implementation and production, often spanning multiple teams and domains.
Build and Scale the Backbone of AppSec - Design and evolve distributed systems and data infrastructure supporting large enterprise environments and hundreds of millions of entities, while balancing scalability, reliability, performance, and cost.
Stay Hands-On and Raise the Engineering Bar - Write and review production code, solve complex technical problems, and champion excellent architecture, maintainable code, testing, observability, and production ownership.
Drive Performance & Reliability - Identify architectural and operational bottlenecks and lead meaningful improvements in scalability, resiliency, efficiency, observability, and production readiness.
Shape DevEx and AI-Driven Engineering - Improve how engineers build, test, debug, and operate software while leveraging AI, automation, and agentic approaches to accelerate development and unlock new capabilities.
