As a Staff Engineer on our Growth and Transformation team, you'll be driving client success by designing and implementing strategic initiatives that enhance customer acquisition and retention for our clients.

  • Lead the design and implementation of resilient backend services optimized for performance, maintainability, and reliability.
  • Collaborate and evolve cloud architectures and deployments on multiple public clouds (AWS, GCP, Azure) partnering with platform engineers.
  • Partner with engineering, product, and design teams to translate client goals into impactful technical solutions.
  • Lead complex, cross-functional initiatives from inception through production.
  • Define and champion best practices in testing, observability, security, and documentation.
  • Identify and resolve critical technical debt, executing high-value refactors that improve delivery velocity and system health.
  • Mentor and grow engineers and managers through coaching, code reviews, and technical guidance.
  • Foster a culture of learning, innovation, and AI-driven problem solving, leveraging tools such as Cursor, Windsurf, or Copilot.
  • Shape long-term technical strategy, influencing architecture and process decisions across multiple products and teams.
