Responsibilities

  • Establish engineering patterns and standards for the team: how we build, test, observe, and iterate across both product and platform work.
  • Apply and champion AI tooling (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and the rest) to accelerate output and raise velocity.
  • Drive architectural decisions: data models, service boundaries, system tradeoffs, and communicate them clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Mentor engineers, provide substantive feedback, and serve as a go-to resource for technical judgment across the team.
  • Partner with Product and Design to shape scope and de-risk execution on high-ambiguity problems.
  • Work directly with customers (financial advisors) to understand workflows and bring context into what is built.

Qualifications

  • Use AI tools aggressively in daily workflow (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, etc.) and translate into concrete decisions.
  • Track record of leading projects end-to-end with measurable business impact.
  • Strong full-stack or platform engineering depth; experience with Rails, React, Next.js, PostgreSQL, GraphQL.
  • Strong system design instincts: data models, service boundaries, failure modes, and scale.
