  • Collaborate with peers - other engineers, product, and operations - to understand key pain points and develop possible solutions.

  • Assess incoming work and proactively identify potential solutions for the root problem. 

  • Debug and resolve issues as they arise, and perform post-mortem analysis to reduce likelihood of future problems.

  • Document and communicate new work to help get it widely adopted.

Desired Experience:

  • Bachelors in Computer Science or equivalent.
