Responsibilities

Lead design reviews for core systems and integrations, ensuring correctness, safety, and maintainability

Establish typed contracts, schema migration discipline, and resilient messaging/queuing patterns

Drive end-to-end architecture for reliability (retries, backpressure, DLQs, circuit breakers)

Ship critical features hands-on: from backend APIs to AI-powered workflows and integrations

Prototype and scale new patterns (retrieval pipelines, secure on-prem deployments, fleet telemetry)

Own deep dives into Sentry errors, performance bottlenecks, and infra incidents—then harden systems against recurrence

Embed AI into engineering workflows: automated test synthesis, AI-assisted code review, log summarization, postmortem drafting

Define safe-use patterns for AI copilots, balancing velocity with correctness and auditability

Design and enforce SLOs, error budgets, and telemetry standards

Ensure system reliability across air-gapped, hybrid, and cloud deployments

Lead incident drills, root cause analyses, and resilience testing

Partner with cybersecurity to embed secure design principles (least privilege, identity/SSO, audit trails)

Help shape SOC 2/ISO 27001-aligned engineering practices without slowing delivery

Raise the bar for engineers through technical coaching, pairing, and modeling how to tackle complex problems

Shape the engineering culture toward correctness, safety, and thoughtful AI adoption

Cut a noisy class of Sentry errors by 30%+ via task idempotency, DLQs, and AI-assisted log triage

Define a reference architecture for OneNote → AtomAssist ingestion (schema validation, replayable queues, full lineage)

Stand up fleet telemetry for edge appliances: health checks, secure update channels, DR runbooks

Partner on SOC-2/ISO-27001 audit prep by embedding secure coding and release practices

Prototype copilot-style UX flow for CAP AI with human-in-the-loop diff-based approvals
