- Experience mentoring engineers and defining engineering standards.
- Deep operational monitoring and observability expertise.
- Experience promoting architectural patterns and engineering best practices.
- Background in AI-driven SaaS, enterprise B2B platforms, or HR Tech.
- Openness to learning additional tools and cloud optimization strategies.
Team & Environment:
- Cross-functional, globally distributed product team.
