You will lead set technical direction for the systems you own and influence design across partner teams on data contracts, quality, freshness, and access control. You will work with product, data, engineering, and science partners to turn ambiguous requirements into durable capabilities, including the data and evaluation foundations that agents depend on. As a senior engineer on the team, you will mentor other engineers, sharpening their technical judgment, code quality, and ability to operate independently in a fast-moving environment.
The ideal candidate brings strong design and implementation skills, deep experience with distributed systems and large-scale data processing, and comfort operating across the stack — from service architecture and data pipelines to semantic and serving layers. Experience building data platforms, reporting or analytics systems, metrics layers, knowledge graphs, or data services consumed by ML models and agents is a plus. The ideal candidate will have a demonstrable track record of leading the design and delivery of new platforms or products that other teams build on.
