You will collaborate closely with product engineering teams, platform peers, and infrastructure partners to ensure our systems are resilient, performant, secure, and maintainable. This role is well-suited for an engineer who enjoys working at the intersection of application architecture and infrastructure systems, and who brings strong judgment to balancing delivery speed with long-term platform health.
