You’ll be instrumental in defining the technology choices, building robust infrastructure, and ensuring the scalability, reliability and security of our core compliance platforms. This role requires a hands-on technical leader who is excited about building high-quality software, comfortable mentoring engineers, driving contract teams and is excited to tackle significant technical challenges in a rapidly evolving environment.

The successful candidate will design, implement, and maintain scalable cloud native solutions across our growing product suite. You will collaborate directly with other software engineers, product managers, and other stakeholders who work together to solve the right problems at the right time. This includes participating or driving architectural discussions, conducting code reviews, and proactively identifying and addressing potential technical roadblocks.
