You’ll help evolve our DVI platform from a largely manual process into a more intelligent, assistive experience, leveraging capabilities such as AI-driven media analysis, guided inspection workflows, and automated findings generation. You’ll operate across the full development lifecycle, from early technical exploration and architecture, to implementation, iteration, and long-term scalability, while partnering closely with Product, Design, and Data to turn ambiguous problem spaces into durable solutions that deliver real customer value.

Ensuring performance, reliability, and scalability of systems in production, while maintaining high standards for code quality and system design
Manage the end-to-end life cycle on the development of new features
Leading by influence—raising the technical bar, mentoring teammates, and contributing to a strong engineering culture

Requirements:

8+ years of experience building and operating large-scale distributed systems in production environments
Deep expertise in backend programming with recent experience with Java and SQL databases
Strong data analysis capabilities with experience reviewing production data, identifying patterns and insights, and translating findings into actionable technical improvements
Strong system design skills and a solid foundation in software engineering best practices.
You enjoy working in fast moving and dynamic environments
You have high standards and a strong work ethic
You have strong product sense and communication skills
You have experience working cross-functionally and can work within ambiguity
