Our intelligent cloud-based platform seamlessly connects people, systems, and processes to empower organizations to find smarter, faster, and better ways to work.

A Typical Day in This Role: Team Leadership: Coordinate and oversee daily development activities while mentoring and supporting your team. Cross-Functional Collaboration: Engage with other teams, product managers, and stakeholders to ensure alignment and project success.

Work closely with product management, design, and other development teams to deliver high-quality solutions. Plan and execute projects aligned with organizational priorities and risk assessments. Contribute to the development of the platform (coding, reviewing code) while navigating Java and Kubernetes application architecture. Ensure the delivery of an outstanding experience for our customers. Qualifications 6+ years of software development experience. 1+ years of experience as a manager leading software developers. Strong background in distributed systems design and development. Experience working in a DevOps environment. Proficiency in Kubernetes distributed applications at scale. Advanced understanding of software design, development, testing, and problem-solving. What We’re Looking For: A keen technical mind with the ability to grasp new technologies quickly. A proven ability to troubleshoot complex production issues (e.g., memory leaks, network problems, intermittent failures) across the stack. Knowledge of best practices for object-oriented and modularized software. Strong leadership skills with the ability to hire top talent and foster a culture of innovation. A hands-on leader comfortable with ambiguity and adept at driving clarity and solutions in challenging situations. Bonus Skills: Experience transitioning from a software engineering role to leadership. Hands-on coding experience in Java, Kubernetes, and distributed systems.
