    Experience with RESTful APIs over HTTPS, including API contracts, authentication, authorization, error handling, retries, timeouts, backward compatibility, and production debugging.
  • Experience driving operational excellence for production services, including on-call readiness, incident response, root cause analysis, operational reviews, corrective actions, automation, monitoring, alerting, and supportability improvements.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead technical planning and execution across multiple engineers, including roadmap planning, milestone tracking, risk management, dependency management, and delivery communication.
  • Experience coaching and developing engineers through design reviews, code reviews, debugging support, operational readiness reviews, feedback, performance conversations, and career development.
  • Hands-on familiarity with AI-assisted development tools such as Codex, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, or similar tools, and the ability to guide teams in using these tools responsibly and effectively.
