• Partner with engineering leadership to evolve and standardize the foundational architecture for a cloud-native, event-driven telecom platform — identifying areas for improvement and driving safe, incremental modernization alongside active development • Own developer experience: build tooling, CI pipeline performance, dependency management, and inner-source contribution models across a shared monorepo • Govern shared UI component standards and design system practices used across teams • Establish and maintain engineering standards: RFCs, ADRs, architecture reviews • Partner closely with Operations and SRE to define observability standards (tracing, logging, metrics), SLO/SLI frameworks, and reliability practices • Champion AI-first development practices across tooling, workflows, and culture • Manage and develop a small, established team of senior engineers

• Design, build, deploy, and maintain highly resilient and scalable systems that are critical to our customers’ success • Lead complex projects that span multiple teams to improve functionality and reliability for our customers • Design solutions that anticipate and accommodate future needs while considering tradeoffs • Effectively communicate technical direction, guide our team through execution while driving team quality practices • Act as a force multiplier in improving engineering productivity • Diagnose performance bottlenecks and implement optimizations

• Develop, scale, and optimize the GraphQL APIs, gRPC endpoints, and SQL queries that power the marketplace • Own technical problems of the highest scope and complexity, drafting proposals and presenting them to leadership and partner teams for feedback • Design, architect, and deliver new features end-to-end in a collaborative agile/scrum environment • Identify bottlenecks and areas of risk in production, and drive the changes that make the platform more scalable • Take on the Sportsbook Platform Support rotation, which owns release management and deployment management during its window • Set up and refine monitoring and alerting in DataDog for the systems you own • Mentor engineers on the team and across teams that ship into our codebase, through specs, pairing, and code review • Other duties as required.

• You'll keep Element451's platform reliable, secure, and operable - and build the delivery systems that let it scale without scaling the firefighting. This is a hands-on senior IC role, and a deliberately broad one: reliability and operations are the core, with CI/CD and delivery, security, infrastructure, and data reliability all real, recurring parts of the work. • You own the operational health of the platform - that it's available, fast, observable, and safe in production - and you build the automation that makes those properties durable rather than heroic. • Participate in on-call, lead incident response, run blameless post-incident reviews, and drive issues to root cause rather than patching symptoms. • Treat operational toil as engineering work to eliminate - relentlessly automate remediation, sharpen alert quality, and drive down MTTD and MTTR rather than absorbing manual load. • Own and evolve the CI/CD and delivery platform alongside the Director of Platform Engineering - build pipelines, deployment automation, environment management, and release tooling - so shipping is routine, safe, and low-drama, with progressive delivery, automated rollback, and production validation gates as standard. • Be the platform's hands-on security operator - IAM and least-privilege hygiene, secrets management, threat detection and response (WAF, GuardDuty), and vulnerability triage and remediation against SLA.
