What You'll Do:
Partner with Product and Design to build a great customer experience
Provide technical leadership across one or several areas of the platform
Lead and guide other engineers through architectural platform decisions
Identify potential system risks and trends in reliability and design solutions to address them
Provide input on prioritizing engineering-led initiatives in short- and long-term planning and roadmaps

Who You Are:

You enjoy mentoring and coaching other engineers to become even stronger
You have experience with bills or cost management from the major cloud providers and/or have worked closely with FinOps
You have a BS/MS/PhD in a Computer Science, Engineering or related scientific field or equivalent experience
