You will be responsible for designing, implementing and deploying software components from the ground up through production. You will work both independently and with your team to deliver software successfully, constructively identify problems, and integrate solutions.

The Ideal candidate profile for this role is someone who is a builder at heart that still enjoys building products while also helping to establish a software development team. 90% of your time will be initially spent hands on building our platform, while also helping to grow and uplevel our engineering organization in the US.
