• Independently resolve bugs and system issues during on-call, and proactively reduce toil and tech debt

• Bring an AI-first mindset to your work — actively leverage AI tools and assistants to maximize productivity, accelerate development cycles, and amplify your engineering impact

Leadership & Mentorship

• Serve as a technical lead for projects, defining and delivering well-scoped milestones

• Actively level up less-experienced team members through mentorship, guidance, and setting a strong example
