You will participate in architecture discussions, design reviews, pair programming, and hands-on coding exercises. Success in this role requires strong development skills, the ability to go deep on systems, and a willingness to learn and stretch across multiple projects as the platform evolves. You will collaborate closely with architects, product leaders, and platform SRE/DevOps teams to deliver scalable, observable solutions.
