Responsibilities
- Work cross-functionally with product, design, and other engineering counterparts to execute on product and business strategy.

- A track record of developing and improving highly scalable and reliable serving systems.
- Strong organizational skills, the ability to prioritize tasks and to deliver projects on schedule.
- Entrepreneurial spirit. You are self-directed, innovative, and biased towards action in fast-paced environments. You love to build new things and thrive in ambiguity and even failure.
- Excellent communication skills. You partner effectively with teams in a fully remote environment and discuss complex topics with technical and non-technical audiences.
