  • Substantial production experience in Rust, Java, Go, or Scala
  • Proven experience designing, building, and operating distributed systems at scale

  • Strong SQL and relational database skills
  • Comfort across NoSQL and caching layers
  • Hands-on experience with agentic engineering tools and workflows in production
  • Proven ability to read complex code and own and continually improve code quality
  • Strong cross-functional collaboration with engineering, PM, ML/DS, and leadership
  • A pragmatic default and strong systems instinct — you find root causes, not symptoms
  • Comfort with complexity and curiosity to define the path forward, not wait for one
  • BS or MS in Computer Science, or equivalent experience
  • Rust highly desired
  • Technical leadership on Rust best practices — idioms, safety, and performance — as the team scales adoption across greenfield projects
