Design, develop, test and ship high-quality technical solutions that scale across multiple GitHub services and become intimately familiar with the systems you build and take pride in writing maintainable code. Provide technical leadership, mentorship, pairing opportunities, and code reviews to encourage the growth of others; support teams in producing extensible and maintainable code, ensuring integration with downstream dependencies and adherence to quality standards. Own and advocate for the health and quality of the systems that the team builds, including participating in on-call for first responder rotations and live incidents. Write architecture briefs and proposals and carry out code experiments. Design and implement APIs to facilitate seamless integration between software components. Utilize CI/CD tools to set up automated pipelines for continuous integration and delivery. Collaborate with cross-functional teams and partner with stakeholders and lead discussions for technical solutions, including design and cost considerations. Create and guide others in 1) developing clear testing plans to assure solution quality, reliability, and performance; 2) defining success metrics; and 3) integrating customer feedback for continuous improvement - all while ensuring system architecture meets security and compliance standards. Maintain executional and operational excellence within and potentially across teams/organizations. Apply debugging tools and telemetry to verify assumptions, proactively resolve issues, and optimize code performance and maintainability. Drive and support technical roadmap that aligns with product goals, ensuring that engineering efforts are strategically prioritized and incorporating the adoption of new technologies and methodologies where applicable. Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science or related technical field and demonstrated technical engineering experience with coding in languages including, but not limited to, C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, or Python OR equivalent experience. Demonstrated experience with large-scale system architecture and design, particularly in cloud-based environments, with a strong understanding of distributed systems and microservices. Experience in one or more scripting languages (e.g., Bash, Python, or a similar language), technologies and software platforms, (e.g., Ruby, React, Go, Javascript/typescript, MySQL, cosmosDB, Elasticsearch), front-end frameworks (e.g., React.js), and / or telemetry dashboard (e.g., Datadog, Sentry, Azure Data Explorer). Experience with cloud environments and/or Cloud Native Compute Foundation (CNCF) concepts. Experience working closely with product management, design, and other engineering teams to drive cross-functional projects and deliver high-quality products.
