• Partner with product, design, data, and platform teams to align technical decisions with customer, platform-health, and business outcomes.
• Establish scalable patterns, APIs, and system boundaries that enable teams to move quickly while improving reliability and maintainability.

• Experience leading high-impact initiatives that require coordination across engineering, product, design, data, and platform partners.
• A track record of turning ambiguous product and business problems into clear technical strategies and executable plans.
• Strong communication skills, with the ability to influence technical and non-technical stakeholders without direct authority.
• A coaching mindset and demonstrated ability to mentor engineers and grow technical leadership across teams.
• Commitment to engineering excellence, including quality, operational ownership, observability, and continuous improvement.
• A mindset focused on seizing opportunities and moving with urgency.
