• Work in an AI-Powered Environment: Leverage AI tools daily to write and optimise code, speed up root cause analysis, and generate documentation to raise engineering efficiency.

• Ensure Quality and Stability: Conduct technical analysis, accurately estimate effort, and participate in incident resolution to ensure system health.

• Collaborate & Document: Create comprehensive technical documentation and collaborate cross-functionally with Product and stakeholders to align with the roadmap.

• Growth Mindset: You care about performance and user experience, understanding how technical improvements in onboarding or loyalty flows impact millions of users.

• Reliability & Documentation: You are structured in your approach, enjoy writing clear technical documentation, and focus on building maintainable, high-quality code.
