Accountabilities

• Design, build, test, deploy, monitor, and maintain scalable backend systems and end-to-end product features.
• Own projects from problem definition and technical scoping through implementation, production rollout, and long-term maintenance.
• Partner closely with Product and engineering teams to identify customer needs, prioritize opportunities, and translate them into effective technical solutions.
• Build performant and highly reliable systems capable of operating at significant scale.
• Write high-quality, well-tested, maintainable code and uphold strong standards for engineering quality.
• Work extensively with advanced SQL and relational databases to support robust application functionality and data-intensive workloads.
• Quickly understand unfamiliar codebases and improve existing systems, even when you were not the original author.
• Monitor production systems, feature adoption, performance, and reliability, using data and customer feedback to guide improvements.
• Debug issues methodically and contribute to incident response, reliability initiatives, and long-term preventative solutions.
• Participate in code reviews, technical proposals, architecture discussions, and engineering quality initiatives.
• Contribute to team roadmaps and technical direction, helping shape not only how solutions are built but why they should be built.
• Communicate effectively with colleagues and customers in both synchronous and asynchronous environments.
• Engage directly with customers or support teams to understand how systems are used and identify opportunities for improvement.
• Participate in an on-call rotation and help maintain reliable production services.
• Mentor other engineers and contribute to raising the overall engineering bar through feedback and knowledge sharing.
• Identify problems proactively, propose improvements, and drive initiatives through to completion.
• Use AI-assisted development tools such as Copilot, Cursor, or Claude Code to accelerate development while carefully reviewing and validating generated code.
