Independently uses appropriate artificial intelligence (AI) tools and practices across the software development lifecycle (SDLC) in a disciplined manner. Collaborates with and guides appropriate internal (e.g., product manager, privacy/security subject matter expert, technical lead) and external (e.g. customer escalation team, public forums) stakeholders to determine and confirm customer/user requirements for a project/sub-section of a product/solution. Leads discussions for and owns the architecture of a products/solutions and creates proposals for architecture by testing design hypotheses and develop complex design specifications. Tests and explores various design options for a complex product/solution scenario, outlining strengths and weaknesses of each option. Independently creates a clear test strategy that ensures solution quality, prevents regression from being introduced into existing code. Leads by example within the team to produce extensible, maintainable, well-tested, secure, and performant code that adheres to design specifications. Designs and creates complex distributed systems workflows by gathering requirements from partner teams, identifying of dependencies, and driving alignment and design with partner and product teams, and finally leading the implementation of the solution. Collaborates with engineering and product teams and implement services that offers five 9s of availabilities Acts as a Designated Responsible Individual (DRI) working on-call to monitor system/product feature/service for degradation, downtime, or interruptions and gains approval to restore system/product/service for simple problems. Remains current in skills by investing time and effort into staying abreast of current developments that will improve the availability, reliability, efficiency, observability, and performance of products while also driving consistency in monitoring and operations at scale. Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science or related technical field AND 4+ years technical engineering experience with coding in languages including, but not limited to, C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, or Python OR equivalent experience. Experience in large scale system architecture, design, development, testing, and release, including but not limited to web applications, microservices in layers, database design, API design, performance tuning, telemetry design and analysis. Can design and create complex distributed systems workflows by gathering requirements from partner teams, identifying of dependencies, and driving alignment and design with partner and product teams, and finally leading the implementation of the solution. Demonstrable history of excellent analytical and problem-solving skills. Demonstrated programming skills and knowledge of architectural patterns for large, high-scale applications. Excellence in software engineering practices, coding and solid foundation in data structures, algorithms with demonstrated testing, debugging and analytical skills. Data-driven mindset. Ability to analyze data and persuade your team using effective analysis. Excellent learning, problem solving and communication skills
