Collaborate cross-functionally with product, design, algo, and other engineering partners to scope projects and build delightful user experiences. We validate our judgment by A/B testing product variants with real customers, instead of assuming we know what is best.

Own the quality of your features by writing testable code and crafting automation to validate functionality, in partnership with test engineers.
