This hybrid role is based in our New York office, with in-office collaboration Tuesday through Thursday each week. What You'll Accomplish * Define and own the technical architecture for Attentive's Onsite Growth platform, setting direction for services, APIs, and shared infrastructure that multiple teams depend on * Lead cross-functional technical strategy in partnership with product, design, ML, and data science teams, driving the most complex, ambiguous problems from alignment to production * Identify and address systemic engineering risks (reliability gaps, scalability ceilings, and architectural debt) before they become blockers to the business * Build scalable backend services, APIs, and user-facing product capabilities that power onsite growth at Attentive's scale * Improve system observability, resiliency, and performance to ensure onsite experiences remain fast, reliable, and effective at scale * Mentor and develop other engineers, giving technical feedback, sponsoring growth, and helping the team level up as a whole * Contribute to a strong engineering culture through principled technical leadership and a consistent focus on customer impact ## Related Videos - [Docker Compose: Rediscovered](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1978-docker-compose-rediscovered) - [HTTP headers that make your website go faster](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1676-http-headers-that-make-your-website-go-faster) - [Do TypeScript without TypeScript](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/327-do-typescript-without-typescript) - [How Sparking Developer Joy Unlocks Developer Productivity](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/613-how-sparking-developer-joy-unlocks-developer-productivity) - [Docker build without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100114-docker-build-without-docker) - [Building an agentic software factory: How we rebuilt product development at Pipedrive](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100261-building-an-agentic-software-factory-how-we-rebuilt-product-development-at-pipedrive) ## Related Articles - [How to Answer the Interview Question: “Why Do You Want to Be a Software Engineer?”](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/392-how-to-answer-the-interview-question-why-do-you-want-to-be-a-software-engineer) - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [Where To Find Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/396-where-to-find-software-engineering-jobs)
