• Develop platforms for compute, workload orchestration, service hosting and large-scale storage 

• Create simple, consistent interfaces over complex global infrastructure 

• Design for performance, reliability, scalability and operability 

• Partner with investment and technology teams to shape and deliver solutions 

• Own systems from architecture and implementation through deployment and support 

• Diagnose complex software and distributed-systems issues 

Required Qualifications 

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering or a related field 

• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience 

• Strong proficiency in C++ and Linux 

• Experience with microservices or asynchronous, multithreaded applications 

• Strong system design, debugging and problem-solving skills 

• Ability to own production systems in a fast-paced environment 

• Clear communication and confidence working directly with stakeholders 
• Experience building highly available distributed systems at scale 

Nice to Have
