- Mentor and grow more junior engineers through direct feedback, pairing, and collaborative code and design review
- Investigate and resolve production incidents and complex escalations; build the team's shared knowledge of failure modes at fleet scale
- Champion improvements in end-to-end testing and validation for components with strict correctness and reliability requirements
What You’ll Need:
- BS/MS in Computer Science or related field, or equivalent work experience.
- In depth knowledge with C/C++
