  • Providing end-to-end software solutions, encompassing design, architecture, implementation, maintenance, and user support

  • Own systemic non-functional requirements including scalability, high availability, ultra-low latency media delivery, and hardware-software isolation

  • Architecting end-to-end product observability (metrics, logs, and distributed tracing) to transform operational telemetry into actionable data for informed engineering and product decisions.

• Technical Leadership & Mentorship:

  • Building trust among team members and mentoring to champion a culture of continuous learning and growth

  • Fostering strong collaborative relationships with fellow developers and technical leadership

  • Proactively providing technical guidance and mentorship

  • Upholding rigorous standards for software development and quality, both personally and across the teams

• Consistently Showing up with:

• Deep expertise in distributed systems architecture, microservices, and high-throughput real-time data/media streaming protocols.
• Strong knowledge of CI/CD, test automation, Observability, and DevOps
• Experience working with databases (Berkeley, Postgres)

Preferred Qualifications:

• Successful delivery of a large-scale public-facing application
• Experience developing cloud applications in Azure
• Experience developing applications in one of C++, Rust, C# and .NET

Why you'll love working here:

• Contributing to a product deployed in high-stakes safety scenarios:

  • Protecting the well-being of people in a variety of situations and environments

  • Streamlining communication and improving reactions to critical safety incidents

  • Supporting the creation of more secure events and public assemblies (e.g., major league sports games, music concerts)

• Commitment to professional development & advancement:

  • Supportive managers dedicated to understanding and fostering your growth

  • Well-defined role, responsibilities, and expectations

  • 10% dedicated time for continuous learning and professional development (1 day every two weeks)
