• End-to-end features. You own your work from the database to the user interface, across the customer-facing web app, APIs, partner integrations, and workflows that support files from open to disbursement. You take a problem from rough idea through spec, build, review, and launch. • Driving requirements to closure. You partner directly with the product, turn ambiguous asks into concrete specs, surface tradeoffs, and drive the work to completion. You do not wait for a fully defined ticket. You gather context, make informed decisions, and move the work forward. • Quality you can stand behind. Money and identity flow through this product, so correctness is a core part of the role. You write tests, account for failure cases, and maintain a high quality bar on every PR, whether the first draft was written by you or by an agent. • Production readiness. You ship, observe, and respond. You improve the codebase as you work and help raise the team’s standard for reliability, maintainability, and operational quality.

• Own the architecture and hardest technical work on our engineering-quality initiatives: workflow testing, mutation testing (Stryker), end-to-end testing, our QA agents, and the public API. • Go where the hard problems are - across any squad's code. Your scope is technical correctness and leverage, not a team boundary. • Set the technical direction for cross-cutting systems, make the architecture-of-record decisions, and document the trade-offs. • Raise the technical ceiling of the org through design review, architecture guidance, and mentorship of senior engineers. • Identify systemic technical risk before it becomes an incident, and drive the fix. • Partner with the SVP of Engineering on technical strategy - you are a primary technical voice as we shape where the platform goes. • Set the standard for using AI in development responsibly: AI-augmented, but with validation of output as a non-negotiable, and you set the example.

• Design, build, maintain, and extend products, features, and functionality that solve real customer problems. • Partner with Product, Design, and Engineering to discover and validate customer needs and technical approaches. • Prototype quickly, and as necessary, to de-risk projects, test assumptions, and iterate ideas into production-ready solutions. • Consistently deliver incremental value by anticipating dependencies, breaking down work, and regularly demoing progress. • Communicate technical trade-offs, present system design proposals clearly, and document architectural decisions. • Apply modern software engineering practices to deliver robust, maintainable, and extensible systems. • Uplevel teammates through code reviews, pairing, and strong collaboration. • Take ownership of your code and product domain, engaging in retrospectives and continuously improving how the team works.

• Own the advisor mobile app end to end including the native shell, hybrid surfaces, embedded web views, and the Rails APIs behind them • Get a usable app into advisors' hands as soon as possible by shipping working pieces every single week along the way • Build and extend the Rails APIs the app depends on, rather than waiting for someone else to spec them • Iterate on the foundations the team will live with by developing the build and release pipeline, app store process, crash reporting, and on-call for mobile • Establish the hybrid and web-view patterns that two advisor pairs and a new designer can build on • Watch your app in production and catch issues before advisors do
