- Break down complex engineering problems into achievable tasks and deliver them within committed timeframes

- Work collaboratively with cross-functional teams to design and implement new features

- Contribute to A/B tests and use experimentation results to decide what ships

- Actively participate in code reviews and enforce good patterns, testing, and edge-case handling

- Coach and mentor junior team members, new hires, and interns

- Maintain and improve the runbooks, alerting, and monitoring for the features you ship

- Participate in a reasonable on-call rotation with the rest of the team
