- Take loosely-defined, ambiguous problems and translate them into concrete technical solutions with clear implementation plans
- Work across the full stack — backend, data layer, and cloud infrastructure — as the work demands
- Collaborate with a cross-functional engineering team through sprint planning, code reviews, and retrospectives
- Ship working software on short, iterative development cycles

Preferred Qualifications
- Experience designing and operating distributed, multi-tiered systems with relational and/or NoSQL databases at scale
- Exposure to optimization techniques such as linear or nonlinear programming
- Strong ability to communicate technical tradeoffs clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
