Own the Automations platform end-to-end—from the policy engine that evaluates rules to the execution framework that takes action across hundreds of integrated systems
Plan and drive large projects with incremental deliverables—you'll contribute to major architectural decisions, assess technical risks, and communicate tradeoffs across teams
Work directly with customers to understand complex requirements and resolve hard problems—the best solutions come from deep understanding, not guesswork
Set the bar for code quality—deliver code that's maintainable, well-tested, and sets the standard for the team
Be a stabilizing force when things are ambiguous—keep the team aligned on priorities and moving forward even when the path isn't clear
Mentor and elevate others—delegate effectively, trust people with real ownership, and help engineers around you grow

A track record of delivering complex, multi-team projects—you've shipped systems that handle real scale, real failures, and real customers
Deep experience with Go or similar backend languages, with strong opinions on how to write maintainable, performant code
Strong systems thinking—you balance technical debt against feature velocity and make pragmatic tradeoffs
Demonstrated technical leadership—you've driven architectural decisions, built consensus across teams, and helped other engineers grow
High agency—you figure out what needs to be built, not just how to build what you're told. You move fast and unblock yourself.
Deep understanding of production environments—you know how to debug, monitor, and operate the systems you build
Experience with AI-assisted development (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, or similar)—you're already using these tools and excited about what's next
Clear, persuasive communication—you can explain complex technical concepts to diverse audiences and build alignment
Ego in check—you care about getting it right, not being right.
