  • You will partner with cross-functional stakeholders across Product, Design, Architecture, DevOps, AI, and QA to align priorities and trade-offs.
  • You will actively contribute to the codebase and take on complex engineering challenges - leading by example with clean, efficient, and testable code.
  • You will own and promote CI/CD pipelines, observability standards, and incident management for production readiness.
