• Collaborate with product managers and other engineering teams to understand business requirements and translate them into technical specifications for AI-powered software applications.
• Design algorithms to optimize data ingestion, handle third party rate limits, sync throughput and performance.
• Work together with a high performing team to implement platform capabilities to build third party integrations faster.
• Drive improvements in key metrics such as sync success rate, sync throughput, data completeness and data freshness.
• Enable enterprises to build their own custom connectors using our indexing APIs and custom connector capabilities.
• Participate in code reviews, knowledge sharing sessions, and provide mentorship to junior team members, fostering a collaborative and growth-oriented culture.

• Strong interpersonal skills to lead your projects cross-functionally.
• 8 years experience as a Back End engineer or a full stack engineer.
• Strong proficiency in backend/frontend development technologies such as Golang and Python (required), and popular Front End frameworks like React (nice to have).
• Experience building large distributed systems at scale.
• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to translate user requirements into practical Front End solutions.
• Leading a sub team of intermediate to junior engineers and providing them with technical direction on complex projects.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams and present technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.

• BA/BS in computer science, or related degree.
• Strong coding experience with Golang and Python.
• Experience with building third party app integrations.
• Excited about building 0-1. Comfortable with ambiguity and pivoting in direction.
