  • Recommend and maintain technical design methodologies, processes and standards
  • Set technical direction for their squad, oversee development to ensure quality and timely delivery, mentor and guide the team, and manage technical risks
  • Participate on cross‑functional design teams to develop expertise in other modules / systems

What You'll Need to Be Successful

  • A minimum of 7 years of extensive engineering experience
  • Proficiency in coding using functional or imperative programming languages, such as Golang
  • Proficiency in front‑end engineering, including hands‑on experience with technologies like React and Typescript
  • Demonstrated track record of contributing to and leading the successful delivery of impactful product features across all phases of development, from initial research and UX design to prototyping, testing, and development
  • Proven experience in taking ownership of technical architecture discussions and technical decisions for an engineering organization
  • Experience with distributed systems deployed in Kubernetes (K8S)
  • Ability to produce clear, testable code with a focus on long‑term maintainability
  • Exceptional collaboration and interpersonal skills, enabling effective teamwork and communication

  • Compensation

    $200,000 - $215,000 a year
