• 7.5+ years of professional software engineering experience, minimum.
• Deep, hands-on AWS experience: you've designed and run production AWS infrastructure, not just consumed it.
• Polyglot engineer, we write TypeScript, Python, GoLang (and probably more in the future)
• Founding or early-stage engineering experience: fewer than 20 engineers, high ambiguity, infrastructure decisions with your name on them.
• A daily, practical relationship with AI tooling. You use it to move faster and you have real opinions on where it helps and where it doesn't, in code and in infrastructure.
• Mac-based development environment, comfortable and fast in it.
• Written and verbal communication that works across time zones with no daily stand-up to fall back on.
• Experience standing up SOC 2 or similar compliance infrastructure from scratch.
• Multi-entity or multi-brand technical environments (shared infra, separate accountability).
• Fully remote, async-first by necessity given the time zone spread. Small enough that your decisions ship the same week you make them, and small enough that a bad decision is expensive. We'd rather you say "I don't know yet, give me two days" than guess confidently.
