Job Description
Design and deliver technology solutions that solve complex business problems, improving engineering and operational processes within your team and across the organization.
You will lead the design, implementation, and successful delivery of technical solutions for complex problems, working autonomously but seeking direction from peers and manager when needed. Your solutions will be pragmatic, efficient, and cost-effective, considering the legacy of the systems you build and how they will scale and evolve over time.
As a trusted technical contributor, you will participate in strategic planning and decision-making with customers, partner teams, and peers, working backwards from the customer experience to ensure correct solutions are built. You will also participate in reviews of architecture, design, operations, process, or post-incident analysis for your team and actively participate in reviews of systems owned by partner teams.
You will demonstrate ownership of your team's systems, proactively identifying and mitigating extant risks and deficiencies, and work to reduce complexity and enable greater agility for your team and other teams in your organization. You will think in terms of architecture, not just components or services, and show good judgement when making trade-offs between tactical and strategic concerns at team or service level.
