We do this by building and running the world's best data and AI infrastructure platform so our customers can use deep data insights to improve their business. Founded by engineers — and customer obsessed — we leap at every opportunity to tackle technical challenges, from designing next-gen UI/UX for interfacing with data to scaling our services and infrastructure across millions of virtual machines. And we're only getting started. Our AI-powered Assistant serves as the initial point of contact for customers seeking assistance on how to use our platform effectively.

Lead architectural decisions to ensure performance, reliability, and accuracy of the knowledge systems. Drive best practices for engineering excellence, including design reviews, code quality, testing strategies, and performance optimizations. Deliver high-quality, production-ready code and services end-to-end — including performance tuning, resiliency improvements, and debugging in live environments. Contribute to longer-term technical planning and support strategic initiatives in Assistant and Support organizations. What we look for: 6+ years of industry experience building and operating large-scale distributed systems.
