### Responsibilities

You will be responsible for setting technical strategy for your team on a year-long timescale and helping your team tie it together with critical, business-impacting projects.

You will collaborate across teams in the product development lifecycle by working with product management, design, and analytics to ensure technical sustainability, risks, and trade-offs are well understood and managed.

You will act as a force multiplier for your team through your definition and advocacy of technical solutions and operational processes.

You will take ownership of your team's operations and availability by ensuring you have the right monitoring, triage rotations, playbooks, policies, testing, and alerting in place to support 'keep the lights on' and on-call efforts.

You will foster a culture of quality and ownership on your team by setting code review and design standards for your team and advocating for them beyond your team through your writing and tech talks.

You will help develop talent on your team by providing feedback and guidance and leading by example.

You write high-quality code that is easily understood and used by others.

You thrive in ambiguity and are comfortable moving from low-level language idioms all the way to the architecture of large systems to understand how they work.

Your growth and impact trajectory demonstrates that you have mastered gathering and iterating on feedback from your engineering and cross-functional peers.
