- Drive technical decision-making while striving to hit the right balance between factors such as simplicity, flexibility, reliability, and performance.
- Participate in the team's on-call rotations to make sure we offer our customers the best availability for our services.

- 8+ years of experience working on large-scale systems or services.
- You bring solid architectural and security knowledge, backed by experience in designing, implementing, and evolving complex distributed systems.
