The Posting
About the company
Our client is a technology company.
The role
Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Improve the shared engineering systems, build workflows and in-house utilities that a large group of engineers depends on daily. Serve as a senior technical leader who mentors colleagues, sets team standards, and helps others move faster and ship with confidence.
What you'll do
- Refine how code travels from a developer's machine to production, streamlining the setup engineers use every day across the whole company.
- Work alongside colleagues from several adjacent groups to pinpoint slowdowns and deliver the most valuable fixes.
- Assess AI-assisted coding tools, choose which to adopt, add safeguards and measure their real effect on productivity.
- Set developer experience standards, documentation and operational runbooks that keep pace with company growth.
- Lead as a senior technical voice, mentoring future hires and proposing improvements rather than only following a set plan.
Requirements
What we're looking for
- Senior-level engineering experience, comfortable acting as a tech lead and mentor.
- Multi-year experience at a high-growth startup during periods of rapid scaling.
- Track record creating shared systems and utilities that internal engineers depend on.
- Strong security awareness, particularly around build pipelines and backend systems.
- Fluency in a modern backend programming language.
- Hands-on background engineering server-side foundations that keep working as load and codebase size grow.
- Experience collaborating across several engineering teams.
Bonus points
- Experience using Protocol Buffers.
