- Tune/Optimize/Load test our servers as we 10x our growth from tens of millions to hundreds of millions of users per day.
- Designing data systems and ML training infrastructure that power automated experimentation at scale.
- Work directly with founders and customers to design, implement, and deliver the best experiences!
- Wearing a lot more hats than listed above 👷.

- Experience scoping, designing, and running complex multi-engineer projects
- Experience managing or mentoring engineers before
