Technical Skills

• Strong expertise in Python, PostgreSQL, Docker, Kubernetes, and distributed systems.
• Ability to dive deep into debugging, performance tuning, and system design.
• Write and review engineering design docs holistically and act as a final PR reviewer in one or more areas of the product.
• Ability to productively use AI Tools and IDEs to their advantage

Leadership & Ownership

• Break down initiatives into milestones, estimate effectively, and deliver complex features with minimal oversight.

• Identify technical debt, propose roadmap improvements, introduce better practices (monitoring, tests, CI/CD), and participate in recruitment.

Mindset & Collaboration

• Strong collaboration skills - you work well with peers and cross-functional partners, and you know great ideas can come from anywhere.

What to Expect

We value humility and collaboration - we're looking for people who can work as part of a team, not in silos.

We expect engineers to take ownership beyond just writing code - including tests, documentation, and long-term code quality.
