Ensure designs prioritize resilience, scalability, and cost efficiency, anticipating potential risks and planning accordingly.

Encourage awareness of security and compliance frameworks (PCI, SOC2, PII) and foster an environment of ethical, responsible design.

Leadership & Influence

Mentor and grow teams of senior developers and architects, motivating them to align with organizational goals.

Build strong partnerships across internal teams, resolving competing priorities and fostering collaboration across boundaries.

Lead cross-functional reviews with internal stakeholders, presenting complex technical concepts in a clear, persuasive way.

Create an environment that encourages innovation, inclusion, and measured risk-taking, while holding self and others accountable for high performance.

Responsibilities

Strong background in distributed systems, performance optimization, and troubleshooting at scale.

Experience with observability and operational tooling (OpenTelemetry, Prometheus / Grafana, OCI Logging).

Demonstrated ability to influence architecture direction, mentor senior engineers, and deliver business results through execution excellence.

Preferred Qualifications

Familiarity with multi-cloud environments (OCI, AWS, Azure) and container platforms beyond Kubernetes (e.g., OpenShift, AKS, EKS).
