• Design, build, and maintain internal platforms and tools that serve People, Finance, Ops, Sales, and Engineering teams. • Own features end-to-end: requirements, architecture, implementation, testing, deployment, and monitoring. • Write clean, well-tested, production-grade code. You hold yourself to the same bar as customer-facing products. • Build API-first integrations across the internal ecosystem — connecting HRIS, CRM, finance platforms, knowledge management, and developer tools into a coherent stack. • Design for reliability, performance, and scale — what you build today must hold as the company grows 5–10x. • Eliminate data silos. Build clean data pipelines that maintain a single source of truth across systems. • Own your services in production: monitoring, alerting, incident response, and post-mortems. • Build AI/LLM-powered features into internal workflows — automating approvals, knowledge retrieval, reporting, content generation, and operational processes. • Move fast from prototype to production. You know the difference between a demo and a system that works at scale. • Stay current on emerging AI capabilities and proactively identify where they unlock step-change improvements in internal productivity. • Work directly with business stakeholders to understand pain points and translate them into technical solutions. You don’t wait for a spec — you help shape it. • Pair with and mentor junior engineers. Raise the technical bar through code reviews, design reviews, and leading by example. • Influence technical direction: propose architectural improvements, challenge assumptions, and drive best practices across the team.
