Modernize & Triage: Proactively identify architectural technical debt and propose clear, actionable modernization strategies to keep our platform lean and performant.
Collaborate Cross-Functionally: Work closely with the Director of Business Systems and stakeholders across Finance and HR to ensure technical projects directly enable company-wide growth goals.

Who You Are
A Pragmatic Problem Solver: You understand that in a fast-paced PE-backed company, "done" is often better than "perfect," but you never compromise on system integrity.
A Technical Leader: You aren't just a theorist; you are comfortable performing deep-dive code reviews and mentoring developers on best practices.
