## About the role

Production Engineers at Ramp are full software engineers who happen to specialize in infrastructure . You write production code, you own systems end-to-end, and you drive technical outcomes across the organization — not just within your team. Build and operate critical infrastructure across Ramp's compute, storage, messaging, and observability stack — owning the systems that handle real financial transactions at scale.

## What they're looking for

- You can't walk past something broken without wanting to fix it — and you don't stop at the workaround. You find the root cause and eliminate the class of problem
- You think in systems, not tasks. You understand that "fixing the bug" is step one, making it so the bug can't happen again is the job
- You move with urgency but without chaos. You know when to go fast and when to slow down and do it right
- You leave things better than you found them. Every system you touch, every process you encounter — you move it forward. Not always dramatically, but always directionally. You picked it up in a certain state, you leave it in a better one
- You are equally comfortable reading a database query plan, reviewing a system design doc, writing a Terraform module, and jumping into an incident at 2am
- 3+ years of software engineering management shipping high-quality architectures for critical systems
