Responsibilities
Define and drive the multi-year technical vision and architecture for large-scale product systems, ensuring designs are reliable, extensible, and capable of evolving with business needs
• Identify and solve the most complex, cross-cutting engineering problems across multiple systems and abstraction layers, including issues that span organizational boundaries
• Establish extensible technical foundations, coding standards, and architectural patterns that improve consistency and delivery velocity across engineering organizations
• Lead cross-functional execution of org-wide technical initiatives, aligning stakeholders, managing dependencies, and driving outcomes against defined milestones and metrics
• Develop and operationalize engineering excellence programs including reliability standards, performance guardrails, and quality frameworks adopted across teams
• Deeply understand privacy, security, and integrity vulnerabilities relevant to product systems and build robust technical safeguards in partnership with compliance and policy teams
• Mentor engineers across the organization by providing candid feedback, customized coaching, and technical guidance on the most challenging system and feature design problems
• Communicate complex technical strategies and trade-offs clearly to audiences ranging from individual contributors to executive leadership, producing artifacts used as long-term references
• Identify systemic issues and recurring failure patterns across the organization, developing invariants and architectural improvements that prevent entire classes of problems
• Recruit and develop engineers with skills critical to the team's success, role-modeling technical and cultural standards that strengthen the broader engineering community
Minimum Qualifications
• 12+ years of experience with building large-scale applications, or similar experience
• 12+ years of programming experience
• 8+ years of experience with web or mobile technologies
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience
• Experience communicating and working across functions to drive solutions
• Experience in driving large cross-functional/industry-wide engineering efforts
• Experience in mentoring/influencing engineers across organizations
• Experience leading projects with industry-wide impact
• Proven track record of planning multi-year roadmap in which shorter-term projects ladder to the long-term vision
Preferred Qualifications
• Experience partnering with legal, policy, or compliance teams to design technical solutions that address privacy, security, or integrity requirements at scale
• Track record of identifying and delivering step-change improvements to product systems through architectural rethinking or ground-up rebuilds
• Experience defining and operationalizing reliability, performance, or quality frameworks adopted at an organizational or company-wide scale
• Demonstrated ability to integrate AI-assisted development practices and agent-based workflows to drive measurable engineering productivity improvements
