About the role
Requirements:
- 8+ years building production systems, including several years as the technical owner of a platform used by multiple teams.
- Deep expertise in distributed system architecture. You can design across services, defend the trade-offs, and see the failure mode two quarters ahead.
- A track record of leading design across multiple teams and pulling divergent efforts into a single architecture.
- Hands-on depth in AI agentic systems: model APIs, prompt orchestration, tool-calling, evaluation, and agentic data pipelines. You still write the code.
- Demonstrated influence on engineering culture and hiring: standards you set, loops you designed, and engineers you grew.
- Product-first thinking and 0-to-1 experience. You work with product and business stakeholders across functions and geographies, and you judge your work by what customers get.
