• Set code review standards, testing discipline, monitoring, on-call and incident response
• Turn requirements into technical plans and coordinate shared data, pipelines and integrations with Product, adjacent teams and the AI team
• Design and build key features and take on ambiguous problems
• Keep engineering and product leadership informed of progress, risks and trade-offs

Required profile

• 6+ years of software engineering, including full-stack or backend work
• 2+ years directly managing or leading engineers, with a record of mentoring and growing people
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related field preferred; equivalent experience welcome
• Comfortable switching between deep technical work and people/delivery management, and communicating across time zones

Required skills

• Backend development in Python, Java or Go
• Relational and non-relational databases
• Cloud infrastructure (GCP or AWS), Docker, Kubernetes, RESTful APIs and CI/CD
• A plus: healthcare, insurance, fintech or other high-reliability transactional systems experience, and prior player-coach experience
