You’ll regularly meet with customers to understand their goals, help them get more out of the platform, and walk them through the new features you’ve shipped for them
You’ll continue this legacy - tackling novel challenges and turning solutions into repeatable systems
You’ll ship by contributing across everything - the dashboard, desktop app, backend services, and AWS infrastructure-as-code
You’ll go from problem identified to solution shipped in days, even if it means working long nights and weekends
