- Troubleshoot and resolve complex technical issues related to our SaaS platform, ensuring minimal downtime and maximum reliability.
- Identify and implement improvements to our products and processes to support our growth.
- Coordinate the delivery of features from the roadmap through each stage of the development cycle.
- Participate in the planning and estimation of development tasks, and ensure timely delivery of features and enhancements.
- Lead by example in terms of excellence, attention to detail, evaluating priorities and risks, designing scalable solutions, etc.
About You
- You have ample experience designing and shipping scalable, reliable and maintainable systems that operated at large scale. Ideally in a similar stack as ours: Ruby on Rails, React/Vue, AWS.
- You have a few years of experience being one of the most experienced developers in a team (or teams), with responsibility over their outcomes, acting as a multiplier and have learnt some lessons along the way.
- You are passionate about learning, continuous improvement, and excellence in software engineering as a craft, and love nurturing a culture that embraces those values.
- You thrive when given autonomy and responsibility to identify problems, drive solutions and bring the team along encouraging a healthy and inclusive work environment that’s both supportive and challenging to promote growth.
