Interact with internal and external users, help them get the maximum value out of our products, and deliver their feedback to the product team.

What we need to see:

Excellent problem solving, collaborative, and interpersonal skills. Experience working in distributed teams is welcome.

Ability to work across the full stack, including the server side code in Python and frontend code in JavaScript.

Participation in deployment and maintenance of microservices.

Experience building web APIs, familiarity with GraphQL.

Proficiency with Datadog, ClickHouse, and Grafana for observability, analytics, and dashboarding.

Experience working in programming languages like Go and Rust.
