Partners with other engineers to share best practices, amplify impact, and accelerate the adoption of emerging technologies.
Responsibilities
Tackle ambiguity by building thin, end‑to‑end implementations that touch all major components of a system to evaluate the feasibility of emerging technologies and early prototypes to explore unknowns, validate assumptions, and unblock teams.
Embrace rapid iteration, prioritizing speed and learning by delivering minimum lovable products and evolving them through continuous feedback.
Serve as a technical leader and mentor.
Support project planning and execution, helping prioritize work, communicating effectively with stakeholders, and ensuring timely delivery of high‑quality code.

Passion for innovation, emerging technologies, and driving continuous improvement.
Expertise in systems architecture, platform thinking, and technical leadership.
Strong communication skills, navigating conflict, building trust, fostering alignment across cross‑functional teams, explaining complex systems and trade‑offs to engineers, product managers, and stakeholders.
Hands‑on experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure or GCP), microservices architecture, CI/CD pipelines, test, development and deployment approaches, including containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), A/B testing, etc.
