About the role

When we do our job well, every engineer at the company ships faster and more safely.
We're hiring a senior software engineer for our team.
Solving the problems we face means being comfortable in and understanding the full breadth of our code base.

Own ambiguous projects end to end. You'll take on broad, loosely-defined problems and drive them to a clean outcome, deciding the approach yourself rather than waiting for a plan. Autonomy is the heart of the role.
You make engineering decisions with that context instead of just building to spec.
Think architecturally about complex systems. You see how a large system fits together and influence their collective design: which component owns what, how responsibilities are divided, and the interfaces between constituent parts.
You'll range across the full surface of the platform over time: our Python pipelines and SDK, our control-plane services and databases, our CI and build systems, and our C++/gRPC service layer.
Collaborate across teams. You'll partner regularly with our reconstruction/ML, content, and product engineers, and you'll often be the person connecting work that spans more than one team.
Raise the bar. You'll make sound architectural calls, weigh tradeoffs pragmatically, and improve how the team designs, tests, and ships. You make the engineers around you better.
Comfort in uncertainty. You move comfortably across unfamiliar, under-documented systems and can get your footing to drive value quickly.
Own ambiguous projects end to end.
You'll take on broad, loosely-defined problems and drive them to a clean outcome, deciding the approach yourself rather than waiting for a plan.

You have a track record of owning ambiguous, cross-team projects end to end and driving them to completion.
You're a strong software engineer with a proven track-record of delivering complex projects involving multiple connected components.
Comfort in uncertainty.
You work well across teams and disciplines, and communicate clearly with both engineers and non-engineers.

Domain Experience.
Build, CI/CD and Release Engineering.

the SDK and platform services every other team builds on, the tooling and CI that move our code, and the contracts that hold our products together.
Our area of ownership and work spans the entire engineering org, and our tech stack is wide and varied: Python and C++, data pipelines, databases, CI and build systems, transport layers, and cloud infrastructure.
The engineers that thrive here are excited about following a problem wherever it leads instead of staying inside one technology.
You'll own meaningful, ambiguous projects from definition through delivery, with real autonomy over how they get done.
