We’re looking for a Staff Platform Engineer to lead and scale the systems that power our product and engineering team. You’ll be the architect and driving force behind the reliability, scalability, and velocity of our platform — designing the infrastructure that powers products used by millions of users, and defining how our company builds and ships software at scale. This is a high-impact, high-ownership role in an environment where we move quickly, set ambitious goals, and hold a high bar for speed and technical excellence. You’ll drive long-term architectural decisions, lead high-leverage initiatives across teams, and set the technical standards for how we operate as we scale rapidly. You’ll also play a key role in enabling engineers across the company to move faster while maintaining reliability and code quality. Our stack is React (web app), React Native (mobile app), Node.js, and Typescript, running on GCP with a serverless architecture (Firestore, Redis, Cloud Run).
