Identify bottlenecks and bugs, devising scalable and proactive solutions to address them.
Guide and mentor engineers, fostering a culture of technical excellence and continuous improvement.
Drive technical standards and engineering practices across Product & Engineering.
What you'll bring to the team

Ability to produce well-tested, high-quality code.
Experience developing and operating SaaS products or cloud-based services at scale.
Experience leading cross-functional technical initiatives with multiple stakeholders and dependencies.
