Software Engineer, Data Services (Mexico)

• You thrive on high-impact work that is foundational to the operation of the business
• Where others see intimidating complexity, you see simpler subproblems and solutions that can be built back up to solve the broader problem
• You know that a big part of solving a complex business problem is getting the domain model right

Desired Outcomes — What does success look like?

• Engage in cross-team and cross-functional efforts to ensure timely, successful delivery against team OKRs
• Design, implement, test, and operate systems with exemplary engineering fundamentals that make appropriate tradeoffs
• Achieve team and business impact through high personal output
• Prioritize and scope engineering effort according to expected business value, effectively communicating with teammates and stakeholders
• Lead project execution by managing epics/stories/tasks, providing clarity to the business on delivery timing, and acting as an owner of overall project success
• Mentor engineers, improving their technical and non-technical skills to maximize their impact

Competencies:

• Critical thinking with influence — you systematically evaluate the tradeoffs associated with each potential solution to a problem, make an informed decision, and articulate these things well to influence others, driving impact
• Thinking and communicating in first principles — you are able to explain your points of view from foundational concepts rather than by associative thinking
• Stellar engineering leadership by example — regardless of your language of choice, you separate concerns and define well-abstracted interfaces, leading to functioning, performant, well-tested, maintainable code and systems
