You thrive on transforming ambiguous performance problems into measured action and durable fixes. You work ahead of demand, identifying constraints before they reach customers - A track record of ownership:
You’ve led complex projects from design through deployment, carried them in production, and made difficult calls under visible risk and conflicting requirements - Collaboration and communication:
You are comfortable working across functions to align on priorities and to explain technical tradeoffs clearly to technical and non-technical partners alike - A customer-centric mindset:
You keep the customers top of mind, and you can translate their needs into actionable changes in the codebase - Distributed systems at scale:
You have proven success designing, scaling, and hardening distributed systems, all while keeping them reliable under high-load production environments - Experience:
You have 5 - 8 years of professional software development experience, including time spent building and operating distributed systems but we care more about what you’ve built than the exact number - A performance-driven mindset:

- Experience with storage or caching systems at scale
- Familiarity with the OCI image and distribution specs
