Job Summary:
We are seeking an experienced Staff Software Engineer to provide deep technical leadership across multiple teams and drive the design and execution of complex, cross-cutting engineering initiatives. As a Staff engineer you will be a key technical voice in shaping architecture, raising the engineering bar, and helping the organization deliver ambitious technical roadmaps. The ideal candidate will combine deep technical depth with strong organizational judgment, and will be comfortable operating at the intersection of strategy, architecture, and hands-on execution. In this role you will work closely with cross-functional partners — product, design, engineering, operations, and business stakeholders — to translate ambiguous requirements into well-engineered solutions, and will be expected to raise the bar through code review, design review, and mentorship of more junior engineers. The successful candidate brings strong engineering discipline, a clear communication style, and a track record of shipping meaningful work that holds up well in production.
Key Responsibilities
  • Lead the design and execution of large, complex, cross-team engineering initiatives.
  • Develop architectural standards and reference patterns adopted across multiple engineering teams.
  • Mentor senior engineers and influence the technical direction of the organization.
  • Lead detailed technical design reviews and architectural decision-making for high-impact initiatives, ensuring designs are well-scoped, trade-offs are made explicit, and outcomes are documented for future reference.
  • Operate at the intersection of strategy and execution, translating long-term goals into concrete engineering plans.
  • Drive significant improvements in reliability, scalability, and performance of critical platforms.
  • Lead production incident response and post-incident learning for major issues.
  • Partner with engineering managers, product, and executives on technical roadmaps.
  • Set and uphold the engineering hiring bar through technical interviews, structured calibration, and contributions to recruiting initiatives that grow the team without diluting quality.
  • Contribute hands-on code where most leveraged, focusing on high-impact components.
  • Drive engineering culture, including code quality, documentation, and operational rigor.
  • Represent engineering in cross-functional planning, prioritization, and roadmap discussions, helping product, design, and business stakeholders make informed decisions grounded in real technical trade-offs.
  • Author and review technical RFCs, architecture decision records, and design documents that crystallize key technical decisions and create durable institutional memory across the engineering organization.
Required Qualifications
  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science or a related discipline.
  • Eight or more years of professional software engineering experience.
  • Proven track record of leading complex, cross-team engineering initiatives.
  • Deep expertise in at least one of distributed systems, cloud platforms, or large-scale data systems.
  • Strong programming skills in at least one major backend language.
  • Excellent system-design and architecture skills.
  • Demonstrated mentorship and technical leadership of senior engineers.
  • Strong understanding of operational excellence, reliability, and observability.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Track record of influencing engineering culture and standards.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience driving multi-year platform modernization initiatives.
  • Public technical contributions (talks, papers, OSS) in relevant areas.
  • Hands-on experience operating large-scale production systems.
  • Exposure to building engineering organizations as well as platforms.
  • Familiarity with FinOps and cost-aware engineering practices.
