This role requires a deep expertise in building distributed systems, familiarity with cross-functional collaboration, and a strategic ability to align engineering initiatives with business objectives. As a Senior Engineer, you'll be in the middle of it all. You'll work across functional and organizational boundaries to ship new features, improve our system architecture, squash bugs, and hone your technical skills. The ideal candidate is both forward-thinking and hands-on, has a strong sense of ownership and delivery, and is a good mentor and co-worker.
