## About the role

We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our growing Platform team and help us execute on scaling Peregrine's cloud footprint. You'll build and ship initiatives that improve performance and reliability, reduce infrastructure cost, strengthen our security posture, and make the platform more developer-friendly, often all at once.

## What they're looking for

- Tackles moderately complex, well-defined problems independently, and thinks about how the work threads into the wider system
- Writes clean, well-organized code and knows when to extend an existing pattern rather than build something new
- Sees a project through from kickoff to done, including chasing down bugs that don't have an obvious root cause
- Manages several priorities at once without needing much day-to-day direction
- Surfaces risks and status changes early, and keeps the right people informed
- Weighs cost, effort, and business impact when choosing how to implement something
