If this role is remote, we have listed the top to the bottom of the possible range, but we will specify the target range for an exact location when you are selected for a recruiting discussion.

- Distributed Systems Experience: A proven track record of designing and maintaining reliable distributed systems, including hands-on experience with microservices, CI/CD, and asynchronous or event-driven architectures

- Data Integration & Quality: Experience integrating with external data providers or third-party APIs, and building pipelines that handle inconsistent, delayed, or incomplete data with accuracy and resilience
- Ownership & Communication: Full-cycle ownership of your work and the ability to communicate technical decisions clearly to both engineering and non-engineering partners
