  • Own and design critical features and subsystems, settle the details, and defend your design to peers.
  • Deliver implementations that are elegant, simple, scalable, stable, secure, and supportable.
  • Mentor junior engineers, new grads, and interns so they grow and contribute to the team.
  • Work with the field organization and key customers to shape the product.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in computer science or an equivalent field. A Master's degree is a plus.
  • At least 5 years building distributed, scalable software systems.
