- Work closely with product managers, frontend engineers, data scientists, and other stakeholders to deliver high-quality features and improvements.
- Conduct regular code reviews, providing constructive feedback to ensure code quality and adherence to best practices.
- Stay updated with the latest industry trends and technologies, continuously improving our technology stack and development processes.
- Evaluate where AI can be leveraged to introduce real value into products with generative AI or complex decisioning models.
- Work with and across various teams and product verticles.
Qualifications:
- Minimum of 7 years of experience in software engineering with at least 3 years in a lead or senior role.
- Experience in backend development using Golang.
- Experience in front end development using React.
- Strong knowledge of microservices architecture, RESTful APIs, and distributed systems.
