Responsibilities

System Design & Architecture
- System Scalability:

• Manages the development and implementation of scalable distributed systems and components across multiple teams, including the effective use of distributed state management tools.
• Oversees code and/or system optimization efforts for large-scale data processing and high-throughput requirements within and across teams to support hyper-scale systems.
• Guides teams to define scalability requirements for owned components and ensures design and implementation requirements are met.
• Manages the use of data plane platforms to effectively handle large-scale data retrieval, storage, and processing.
• Ensures team accurately designs performance and load testing.

System Design & Architecture
- System Reliability Design:

• Manages the strategy for building fault-tolerant components and systems capable of withstanding in-service updates by guiding the implementation of redundancy, replication, and automatic failover mechanisms.
• Develops design strategies for systems to effectively handle service disruptions (e.g., network partitions) by prioritizing consistency, availability, or partition tolerance.
• Leads implementation and optimization initiatives across teams for approaches to handle network unreliability, including load-shedding, throttling, and rate-limiting.
• Guides teams to design components and systems that are durable and adhere to service level objectives (SLOs), setting expectations for availability and durability of other computing services within the department.

System Design & Architecture
- System Reliability Performance:

• Provides oversight in defining key performance indicators (KPIs) and telemetry to identify gaps or issues in running systems.
• Oversees the building and customization of moderately complex dashboards, telemetry systems, and alerting mechanisms to proactively monitor components and system health.

System Design & Architecture
- Correctness / Availability:

• Oversees the design and implementation of functional and correctness requirements for feature sets and/or systems in new or…
