Responsibilities

  • Lead and grow a founding team of engineers.

  • Translate product goals into technical plans.
  • Ensure the team ships high-quality, reliable systems.
  • Lead development of a scalable, event-driven, fault-tolerant system.
  • Provide hands-on technical leadership for distributed, stateful, and real-time decisioning problems.
  • Contribute directly to architecture and design.
  • Collaborate with Product, Machine Learning, Data Platform, and adjacent engineering teams.
  • Ensure the platform operates reliably at scale through strong observability, metrics, and incident response.
  • Share on-call responsibilities for business-critical services.

Requirements

  • 7+ years of software engineering experience.

  • Sound architectural judgment around event-driven, stateful, real-time decisioning systems.
  • Experience building and operating backend services in a modern cloud environment (GCP).
  • Hands-on experience with microservice and service-oriented architectures.
  • Experience with synchronous, event-sourced, orchestrated, and asynchronous inter-service communication patterns (gRPC and Kafka).
  • Strong foundation in Python.
  • Practical experience evaluating and designing for distributed systems fundamentals: partitioning, replication, back-pressure, idempotency, and failure handling.
  • Exemplary software engineering practices (system design, code review, testing, CI/CD).
  • Strong focus on operational excellence, including observability, incident response, and healthy on-call practices.
  • Clear communicator and collaborator.
  • Ability to translate technical tradeoffs into practical decisions with product and business stakeholders.
