• At least 7 years of full-stack software engineering experience
• Experience bringing new ideas and building consensus on the path forward
• Experience with building and serving REST APIs using Go (preferably) and Java Python or a similar language.
• Experience working in a distributed, cloud-based architecture, with either design patterns like transactional outboxes, or queuing tools like RabbitMQ, SQS, Kafka
• Demonstrated experience working with Claude or equivalent large language model tools is required; candidates must be comfortable leveraging AI to enhance productivity, research, and communication.
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field.
• Preferred Knowledge and Skills:
• Experience with SQL based RDMS through an ORM tool
• Comfortable using observability platforms like Prometheus, or vendor solutions like NewRelic or Datadog to instrument your code for production monitoring and alerting.

• Familiarity with containerized micro-service architecture deployed with Kubernetes on AWS
• Demonstrated history of delivering commercial APIs and web applications
• A clear record of getting products to market and prioritizing solutions and improvements based on stakeholder/customer feedback.
• About You:
• You have relentlessly high standards - many people may think your standards are unreasonably high. You are continually raising the bar and driving those around you to deliver great results. You make sure that defects do not get sent down the line and that problems are fixed so they stay fixed.
• You’re not bound by convention - your success—and much of the fun—lies in developing new ways to do things
• You need action - speed matters in business. Many decisions and actions are reversible and do not need extensive study. We value calculated risk-taking.
• You earn trust - you listen attentively, speak candidly, and treat others respectfully.
• You have backbone; disagree, then commit - you can respectfully challenge decisions when you disagree, even when doing so is uncomfortable or exhausting. You have conviction and are tenacious. You do not compromise for the sake of social cohesion. Once a decision is determined, you commit wholly.
• You deliver results - you focus on the key inputs and deliver them with the right quality and in a timely fashion. Despite setbacks, you rise to the occasion and never settle.
