- Experience in influencing larger (500+ engineers) organizations on technical direction/best practices.
- Experience working with cross-functional teams such as design, product, data teams to deliver great user experiences.
- Strong focus on user experience, usability, scalability, and quality. You are an undying advocate for the user, and you have a deep intuition for how people think and how they interact with software at scale.
- Software development experience in one or more general purpose programming languages; Python, Go, Rust, Java, C++.
- Excellent communication skills to collaborate with a service-oriented team and company.
