What You'll Do

Provide direction and guidance for large feature work from the inception stage

Express thoughtful opinions and know-how on implementing enterprise-grade systems at the code and schema levels as well as distributed systems architecture

Champion a holistic engineering approach that accounts for SDLC and CICD best practices in terms of development velocity and risk management

Lay out the foundations for new services in Kotlin/Java and Python and ensure their implementation not only to functional requirements, but to performance, scalability, security, and other technical characteristics

Recognize, classify, prioritize, and business-justify investments in servicing tech debt

Collaborate with our product, design, and development teams in order to fully create and understand the requirements for what is necessary to be produced

Lead investigations when necessary to resolve production issues, always putting our customers first

Grow yourself and your team’s engineering skills by mentoring other engineers and reviewing code to ensure high code quality and continuous improvement

Who You Are

Strong development background with 10+ years experience in Java/Kotlin, Python, and/or other environments

Solid computer science fundamentals and demonstrable hands-on experience with architectural design and complex systems

You have experience designing systems that scale as validated through performance and load testing

A profound understanding of how to best create modern SaaS-based web applications

Comprehensive knowledge of modern cloud infrastructure development and tech stacks (AWS strongly preferred), familiarity with Git for version control, and back-end deployment process best practices

Hands-on experience with SQL databases and other persistence models and caching schemes

Experience with DataDog and a strong interest in observability is a plus

You have led high-level technical projects or have been the primary engineering leader of multi-month engineering projects

Skilled at conflict management and resolution; advocating for your ideas strongly while listening and integrating the ideas of others equally strongly

Natural collaborator and problem solver who thrives in fast-paced environments

Relentlessly curious and are continuously working to learn and build your knowledge

You put customers first and are open to help triage on the occasional customer or partner call
