📋 Description

• Own and drive complex platform workstreams end-to-end — from engineering design docs through implementation, launch coordination, war room monitoring, and ongoing support. • Design, build, and operate high-quality, high-throughput distributed backend services with clear SLOs, robust observability, and well-run on-call/incident response practices. • Analyze and refine service and data architectures; propose and lead new systems that improve reliability, scalability, and operational excellence. • Establish and champion engineering standards through rigorous design reviews, production readiness, on-call ownership, and continuous improvement of instrumentation and alerting. • Partner with Legal, Finance, and Policy to deliver compliance-ready solutions across multiple jurisdictions and regulatory frameworks, balancing urgency with long-term maintainability. • Drive the adoption of modern technologies and AI toolsets to accelerate development, improve quality, and increase delivery velocity; mentor peers and influence platform roadmaps. • Contribute across critical fulfillment domains — earnings, pricing, routing, batching, matching, dispatch, and geospatial — delivering solutions that directly impact customers, shoppers, and partners.

🎯 Requirements

• 7+ years of backend software development experience delivering scalable, production systems end-to-end. • Proficiency in at least one backend language such as Ruby, Python, or Go. • Hands-on experience building and operating large-scale distributed backend services with defined SLOs, on-call ownership, observability, and incident response. • Proven track record independently leading complex, cross-functional projects with high ambiguity and hard external deadlines. • Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, including authoring technical artifacts (e.g., ERDs, design docs) and coordinating launches with non-engineering stakeholders. • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.

🏖️ Benefits

• Highly market-competitive compensation • New hire equity grant • Annual refresh grants
