Job description

Drive bugs to zero: Own and aggressively reduce our production bug backlog, prioritizing issues that impact customer experience and trust.

Root cause first, not band-aids: Lead investigations into complex defects, identify systemic causes, and implement durable fixes that prevent recurrence.

Raise test coverage and quality gates: Expand automated test coverage (unit, integration, end-to-end) for critical paths across Node.js, React, and Firebase; implement safeguards so issues are caught before release.

Own observability for the core product

Improve and maintain monitoring with Datadog, Sentry, and GCP Cloud Logs / Error Reporting.

Design dashboards, alerts, and runbooks so that production behavior is visible, actionable, and predictable.

Make updates with minimal review without introducing additional bugs: Move quickly but safely in an evolving codebase by leaning on tests, logs, and clear rollback paths.

Make contributions that are easy for others to build on and extend: Write clean, well-structured, well-documented code that accelerates the entire team.

Plan and deliver reliability-focused enhancements: Prioritize work that strengthens performance, resiliency, and error handling over net-new features in the first phase of this role.

Instrument key integrations with reliability in mind: Own and stabilize integrations with partners such as Stripe, TransUnion and Zil
