Staff Engineers within Hostaway are in a pivotal technical leadership role to ensure their crossfunctional team builds the right solutions that solve customer problems in a way that is secure, extensible and scalable for the future. Staff Engineers are expected to govern the technical maturity for their respective domain, having a clear view of the architectural challenges and how to remediate them over time.
