• Experience scaling technical teams a plus

As a Sr. Software Engineer, you are involved in all stages of the product development and deployment lifecycle: idea generation, planning, design, prototyping, execution, shipping, and iteration. You might spend one day with product managers asking questions about the product and the next brainstorming mockups with Product Designers. Then, it’s time to take on the hard technical problems: figuring out how to develop the feature as a scalable service or scheduler and/or make it possible for a UI to access the full range of data through APIs at vast scale, then dive deep to understand each data point at a granular level. You need to have deep understanding of architecture and design patterns of microservices in cloud environment. Specific tasks include but not limited to:

• Build full stack consumer products, from pixel-perfect UIs to highly available backend systems.
• Iterate rapidly, collaborating with product and design to launch the first versions of new products.
• Work with engineers across the company to ship modular and integrated products.
• Leverage the best of Consumer Cloud’s stack or build from the ground when prudent.
