Responsibilities
• Architectural Vision & Strategy: Define and maintain the long-term technical roadmap for the Redox Engine, ensuring our systems can scale 10x while maintaining 99.95%+ uptime, while maintaining high throughput and low latency. • Hands-on Technical Leadership: Identify and execute on strategic points of leverage to simplify complex systems. You will lead the design of critical components, producing architectural design docs and proof-of-concepts that modernize the platform and reduce long-term maintenance overhead. You’ll write code in this position, not just design systems. • Engineering Velocity: Actively work to remove technical friction for product squads. By simplifying core platform patterns, you will enable teams to build, test, and deploy with greater speed and safety. You’ll also work closely with the team to drive improvements in CICD processes and developer workflows, both with the goal of making overall development faster and simpler. • Cross-Team Alignment: Partner with Product, Security, and Engineering leads to ensure architectural consistency across distributed squads, breaking down silos and resolving technical friction. • Infrastructure & Scalability: Optimize our cloud-native environment (AWS) for performance and cost, advocating for modern patterns in microservices, event-driven architecture, and low-touch resilience. • Mentorship & Culture: Foster a culture of technical excellence by mentoring Senior and Staff engineers, leading architectural review forums, and championing psychological safety, autonomy, and ownership within the team. • Tech Debt Management: Proactively identify and prioritize systemic technical debt, creating clear migration paths for legacy systems without disrupting customer operations.
Benefits
• 100% remote first culture (must be based in the US) • Unlimited Flexible Time Off • 15+ Observed Holidays • Rest & R^Charge days (guaranteed a 3-day weekend each month) • R^Charge (6 weeks paid sabbatical + stipend) • 401k match 50% for up to 8% on Day 1 • Medical/Dental/Vision Benefits on Day 1 • HSA & FSA, Life, Disability, Medical Travel & Employee Assistance Program • Paid Parental Leave (16 weeks) • Productivity Stipend & Wellness Fund • Redox Issued MacBook • Virtual and/or in-person Team & Company Events • Stock Options • Employee Referral Bonus Program • Please keep reading... • Research shows that while men apply to jobs when they meet an average of 60% of the criteria, women and other marginalized folks tend to only apply when they check every box.
