Job description
Senior Software Developer Lead
We value:
• Writing code rather than documents

• Identify major system bottlenecks, or flaws in business logic, and proactively address them
• Take ownership over core product problems, be able to come up with your own solutions that you love and prove through data that it is impactful at scale

• Minimum of 10+ years of non-internship professional software development experience
• Minimum of 10+ years of programming with at least one software programming language experience (Java and/or Python)
• Minimum of 10+ years of leading design or architecture (design patterns, reliability, and scaling) of new and existing systems experience
• Must have experience designing a non-trivial distributed system (multi-tier) - storage layers, caching layers, application layers, understanding of failure modes, expertise with applying a strangler-pattern to transform a system from a monolith to a microservice architecture
• Must have Microservice Architecture experience, especially with high throughput and low-latency systems
• Experience working with complex systems migration involving multiple phases with dark reads, dark writes, light reads, light writes
• Experience as a mentor, tech lead or leading an engineering team
• Must be a US Citizen and able to obtain and maintain Public Trust 6C
