Job Description

• Lead successful projects working collaboratively with engineering team members and cross-functional partners. • Make thoughtful architectural decisions to improve the quality of our software • Propose and deliver new ideas that achieve meaningful improvements to our team’s metrics • Collaborate with stakeholders to find solutions to our most challenging problems

Job Requirements

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or Mathematics, or a related field (or its equivalent) + 4 years of experience
Excellent written and verbal communication. As an engineer, a big part of your job will be representing your projects in cross-functional conversations, and you’ll need to tailor your communication style to fit these different audiences’ needs.
Ability to execute independently and deliver projects of varying complexity and sizes with minimal direction.
Comfortable challenging authority. We want engineers who can push back on their managers when they think we’re going down the wrong path. Related: you thrive in environments where you are expected to think like an owner and make decisions like one.
Preference for face-time and synchronous collaboration. We’re a distributed team of remote workers (from coast to coast), and while we predominantly build asynchronously, we prefer facetime when collaborating in a tight feedback loop. You’ll need to be comfortable with a few hours of Zoom per day (e.g. pair/mob programming) to excel in this role.
