Staff Software Engineer

In the short term, you will:

• Get the lay of the land: dig into our applications, services, and architecture and the teams they span, and pick the highest-leverage problems to put your judgment on.
• Own real problems early: take on hard problems from day one, shape design and reviews across teams, and build the credibility to steer direction beyond your own team.
• Plug into the network: work shoulder to shoulder with engineers, Staff peers, PMs, designers, and engineering leadership, and start unblocking work across teams.

In the long term, you will:

• Set technical direction: own architecture and technical standards that span multiple teams and quarters.
• Multiply the team through leadership: mentor and sponsor engineers at every level, model the standard others follow, and create leverage.
• Drive the hardest problems to done: carry our most ambiguous, high-impact, cross-team initiatives from unclear problem to shipped outcome.

What you’ll need (must-haves):

• Depth in a modern cloud stack: you’ve built and operated production-grade, business-critical systems end to end, across backend, data, and cloud.
• Product and UX first: you start from the user and the product, and let that drive how you build.
• Data as the foundation: you understand that data is what the whole product is built on.

Bonus points (preferred, not required):

• You’ve guided technical strategy and led initiatives that span multiple teams or domains.
• You’ve applied LLM-based tooling to practical data problems like enriching and classifying content.
• You’ve worked with event-driven and microservice architectures.
