  • Building the technical foundation for future features and experiences.
  • Creating a collaborative and supportive team with a strong sense of ownership.

Who You Might Be

  • 7+ years of industry experience in backend, infrastructure, developer tools, or app platforms.

  • Mentoring and coaching other engineers as well as leading by example strong software engineering best practices.
  • Passion for developing scalable, well-designed software that people love.
