The Role

Deliver complex features reliably while raising the technical bar of the team. At this level, your scope extends from individual features to subsystems — you own the outcome, not just the task.

Responsibilities

Design and implement complex features end-to-end; own subsystems and navigate existing codebases with architectural discernment, using AI tooling as an accelerant while applying your own judgment on correctness, security, and alignment with the system's direction
Participate in design reviews; propose sound technical designs and identify scalability, performance, and reliability risks before they become incidents
Scope and estimate accurately; deliver features from requirements through rollout and post-release monitoring; communicate risks early
Mentor junior and mid-level engineers through code reviews and pairing; provide substantive feedback that raises the quality of code around you
Drive improvements in team practices — testing patterns, observability, code organization — and push back on shortcuts that create long-term cost
Explain technical decisions clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders; represent engineering in product discussions with a security lens

What We're Looking For

You own outcomes, not just tasks — accountability motivates you
You build incrementally and surface risks early; you don't absorb uncertainty silently
You help people around you grow through reviews, pairing, and direct feedback
Production-grade Ruby on Rails; PostgreSQL with confidence in data modeling and query performance
Experience building integrations with external systems — REST/GraphQL APIs, webhooks, or third-party vendor connections
Familiarity with AWS, CI/CD pipelines, and deployment fundamentals
Familiarity with AI coding assistants (e.g., Claude, GitHub Copilot); you understand where they help and where they fail — hands-on use is a plus, critical evaluation instinct is required

Failure Modes We Screen Against

Strong coder, weak owner — ships code but doesn't own outcomes. Solo expert — hoards knowledge instead of sharing. An overconfident designer — proposes solutions without considering trade-offs.

Interview Process

Round	Format	What We Evaluate
1 — Hiring Manager Screen	60 min, conversational	Career trajectory, mentorship philosophy, technical influence examples, communication style
2 — Live Debugging & Refactoring	60 min, live coding	Navigating unfamiliar code, root-cause debugging, code quality judgment, AI tool usage
3 — System Design + AI Proficiency	60 min, Miro board	Requirements gathering, schema/API design, trade-off articulation, AI-augmented design segment
4 — Team Interview	2 × 45 min	Collaboration, mentorship examples, end-to-end delivery narrative
5 — Culture Add	30 min, People Team	Organizational values alignment

AI coding assistants are allowed in Rounds 2 and 3. We observe how you use them, not whether you use them.
