You will also serve as a mentor to fellow engineers, enforce coding standards through rigorous code reviews, and proactively reduce technical debt to keep our platform healthy and scalable. If you get excited about building modern, resilient applications and thrive in a collaborative, fast-paced environment, we encourage you to apply.
