• Partner with a platform lead to define and execute technical direction, balancing architectural rigor with rapid iteration in a fast-paced, AI-driven environment.
• Own end-to-end delivery of engineering initiatives, translating product vision and technical constraints into clear, sequenced monthly roadmaps with measurable impact.
• Drive engineering excellence by establishing and promoting high-quality code standards, scalable system design, and efficient development processes that support growth from thousands to millions of users.
• Enable AI-assisted development across the platform by evaluating, integrating, and optimizing modern AI tooling into the engineering workflow and codebase.

• Maintain hands-on technical fluency—participating in design discussions, code reviews, and architecture decisions—while not expected to code daily.
• Support the company’s remote-first culture by enabling distributed team success through clear communication, asynchronous workflows, and intentional team bonding.
• Act as a bridge between engineering and executive leadership, converting high-level business goals into actionable technical strategies and resource plans.
