- This is a role for someone who thinks of internal engineers as customers, cares deeply about developer experience, and brings strong software fundamentals to the infrastructure space
- Hands-on experience building internal platforms or tooling that other systems rely on—you’ve treated it like a product, using data and feedback to drive what you build next
