About the role
Key responsibilities & impact- Take customer problems from discovery to production inside a pod

- Direct AI agents to draft implementation, tests, and migrations; review, integrate, and harden the resulting work
- Design and deliver robust production systems with appropriate correctness, performance, resource efficiency, testing, and observability
- Work across the codebase, including front end, back end, data, and infrastructure as needed
- Move between pods, problems, and streams as priorities change

- Experience using AI tools as a serious part of the development process, with judgement to direct, review, and stand behind their output
- Product and design judgement applied to engineering work
- Experience owning outcomes beyond immediate tasks and making decisions rather than escalating
