- Build internal and partner-facing tools that improve the visibility, reliability, and explainability of how money moves through the payroll system
- Reduce friction in our systems by improving workflows, architecture, and tooling for both developers and operators
- Role model clear, critical thinking through code, proposals, and diagrams that help teams align and move forward together
- Raise the quality bar by working in the open, giving thoughtful feedback, mentoring teammates, and helping the team ship work we’re proud of
Requirements:
- Experience with senior-level ownership and delivery of production systems end-to-end, from design through deployment and operation
- Experience building internal tools, developer platforms, or product systems that support complex operational workflows
- Ability to navigate ambiguous problem spaces and bring structure through thoughtful design and collaboration
- Comfort debugging complex systems and investigating issues that span multiple services or infrastructure layers
- Strong communication skills and the ability to clearly explain technical tradeoffs to engineers and non-engineers alike
