  • A track record of contributing to architectural or technical roadmap decisions

What's In It For You

  • Work on large-scale distributed systems with real engineering complexity
  • Exposure to modern cloud tooling and an evolving technology stack
  • Strong culture of technical ownership engineers lead, not just execute
