Role Summary

• Collaborate closely with Threat Intelligence, Trust & Safety, Legal, and Product teams to understand goals and translate complex technical requirements into elegant, scalable solutions.
• Improve system design and architecture to ensure stability, performance, and maintainability of both internal and customer-facing compliance and security services.
• Analyze, communicate, and help prioritize complex technical concepts across teams.
• Ongoing monitoring and maintenance of production services, including participation in on‑call rotations.
