This is a high impact role where you will drive related technical & product strategy, operations, architecture, and execution for one of the largest sites in the world.

  • 7
    BS degree in Computer Science, a similar technical field of study or equivalent practical experience

    3+ years of software development experience in one or more general-purpose programming languages; Go, Python, Rust, Ruby.
  • 10
    Experienced with GraphQL, REST, HTTP, Thrift or gRPC basics, and the ability to design and implement maintainable APIs.
  • 11
    Strong organizational skills, the ability to prioritize tasks and keep projects on schedule.
  • 12
    Entrepreneurial spirit. You are self-directed, innovative, and biased towards action in fast-paced environments. You love to build new things and thrive in ambiguity and even failure.
