Requirements:

• Experience: 5+ years of software engineering experience, with at least 2 years specifically focused on compliance, safety, or platform reliability

• Regulatory Translation: Ability to read and reason about complex legal/regulatory frameworks alongside experts and turn them into actionable engineering work
• System Refactoring: Proven ability to refactor and modernize legacy systems while maintaining backward compatibility, and the ability to work comfortably across legal, safety, QA, and engineering teams

Desirable:

• Comfortable presenting technical topics to non-technical stakeholders, specifically including legal and policy teams

What’s in it for you?

• Strong community: Work alongside top professionals in a friendly, open-door culture that values initiative and empowers its people to succeed
