• Collaborate with product managers, architects, and other engineers to translate business and customer requirements into robust system designs, including low-level design, API design, and data models.
• Write clean, maintainable, and well-documented code, automated tests, and tooling that improve reliability, observability, and operational excellence for your services.
• Participate in code reviews, design reviews, and technical discussions, identifying opportunities to simplify systems, reduce technical debt, and improve performance and quality across multiple services or domains.
• Own the end-to-end lifecycle of features and services, including deployment, monitoring, incident response, and incremental improvement, while safely integrating and operating AI/ML-enabled solutions that improve outcomes.
• Work across different parts of the stack or adjacent domains as needed, building familiarity with AI-driven systems, tools, or workflows and applying AI/ML concepts to real world products.

Minimum Qualifications

• Bachelors degree in Computer Science or a related technical field; or Equivalent related professional experience.
• 2+ years of relevant professional experience.
• Hands-on proficiency in at least one modern programming language and related ecosystem, with experience in system design (LLD), API design, and data modeling for service-oriented or microservices architectures.
• Experience owning features or services through development, testing, deployment, and operational support, including monitoring, troubleshooting, and resolving production issues.
• Solid understanding of core computer science and engineering fundamentals such as data structures, algorithms, distributed systems concepts, and secure coding practices.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience designing and implementing scalable, fault-tolerant, and high-throughput services, including well-structured APIs and data models that serve multiple teams or domains.
• Demonstrated track record of improving service availability, performance, or reliability through metrics, observability, automation, and strong operational practices.
• Background integrating or leveraging AI/ML-enabled components or platforms within production systems, and safely operating AI-driven features to enhance customer and business outcomes.
• Experience working across multiple technical domains or layers of the stack (e.g., front-end, back-end, data, or platform services), adapting quickly to new technologies, patterns, and AI-driven tooling.
• Ability to contribute to and influence technical designs within a team or product area, making data-driven decisions and helping to evolve engineering standards, patterns, and best practices.
