Translate customer and business needs into clear technical solutions, making thoughtful trade-offs that balance speed, quality, and reliability.
Design, build, and maintain highly scalable, distributed systems that handle large volumes of data.
Identify and resolve pre-production bottlenecks and production issues, improving system resilience and performance. Participate in design and code reviews, contributing to shared engineering standards and long-term system health.
Partner closely with product managers, SREs, and cross-functional teams to deliver meaningful customer outcomes.
Participate in a rotating on-call schedule, diagnosing and resolving production issues to ensure reliability and customer trust.
Mentor junior engineers and contribute to a culture of learning, ownership, and continuous improvement.

5+ years of experience in the design and implementation of distributed systems, including databases, distributed file systems, concurrency control, consistency models with API communication paradigms, including REST.

Preferred Qualifications

2+ years of experience with CI/CD pipelines, Kubernetes, container ecosystems, and microservices-based architectures.
3+ years of experience working with public cloud providers, such as AWS, GCP, or Azure.
5+ years of experience with debugging, troubleshooting, and the use of observability and diagnostic tools.
Experience developing or deploying applications using LLMs, RAG pipelines, MCP, and multi-agent frameworks.
