As a Senior Software Engineer, Cloud Applications, you will play a critical role in designing and building the cloud infrastructure and backend systems that power a large-scale customer platform. You will take ownership of business-critical services, including namespace management, audit logging, and customer data export capabilities, ensuring exceptional reliability, security, and scalability. Working on high-impact initiatives, you will define technical architecture, develop robust data pipelines, and transform complex operational data into meaningful customer insights. You will collaborate closely with engineering, product, analytics, and solutions architecture teams to deliver resilient solutions and improve the overall customer experience. You will also establish engineering best practices, strengthen system observability, and mentor fellow engineers. This opportunity offers significant technical autonomy within a collaborative, quality-driven environment focused on innovation, operational excellence, and sustainable growth.

Lead the end-to-end design, development, and delivery of business-critical cloud services, ensuring scalability, reliability, and long-term maintainability.

Own the technical architecture of systems supporting namespace management, customer isolation, workflow operations, audit logging, and data export capabilities.

Develop and improve services that enable customers to provision, manage, and extract value from cloud-based platform solutions.

Collaborate with analytics and product engineering teams to ensure instrumentation and collected data generate meaningful customer insights and support business objectives.

Translate business and analytical requirements into durable event schemas and data models that remain reliable as products and features evolve.

Design, implement, and optimize high-throughput data pipelines for usage and operational data, balancing data freshness, query performance, cost efficiency, tenant isolation, and fault tolerance.

Establish and maintain robust data quality standards, including schema contracts, pipeline validation, anomaly detection, and alerting mechanisms to identify silent failures before they affect customers.

Ensure data accuracy, consistency, traceability, and reliability across distributed storage and processing systems.

Drive engineering excellence through architecture reviews, code reviews, technical documentation, and the introduction of reusable development patterns and tools.

Improve system observability, incident response processes, performance monitoring, and operational readiness across the engineering team.

Take ownership of production systems, including troubleshooting complex incidents, optimizing performance, and implementing solutions that prevent recurring issues.

Mentor and support other engineers, helping strengthen technical capabilities, promote knowledge sharing, and encourage a culture of accountability and continuous learning.

Identify opportunities to simplify customer workflows through automation, improved developer tooling, and targeted platform enhancements.

Work closely with product managers, solutions architects, and cross-functional stakeholders to translate ambiguous business requirements into clear technical plans and deliver measurable results.
