Software Developer

Our engineering group is split into roughly 60 product teams, each owning its services end to end, with on-call shared across time zones. We keep recurring meetings to Tuesdays and Thursdays where we can.

The role

• Migrate older modules out of the monolith where it makes sense.
• Review pull requests from teammates and give clear, specific feedback.

Qualifications
