Essential Duties and Responsibilities\\n
\\n - Drive build-vs-buy and major architecture/migration decisions, and be able to speak to the tradeoffs, not just the execution.

\\n - Own technical documentation as a real deliverable, design docs, runbooks, and architecture decision records, not an afterthought.
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\n - Lead on disaster recovery and incident response, including writing and executing DR plans.
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\n - Bring security thinking beyond a checklist: threat modeling, access control design, and leading security reviews.
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\n - Solve real scalability problems, whether that\'s traffic spikes, data growth, or architecture that needs to evolve under real-world pressure.
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\n - Be the person the team turns to for technical direction, while staying genuinely hands-on in the codebase.
\\n
\\n
\\n
Education and Experience\\n

\\n
\\n
\\n - 7-10+ years of professional software engineering experience, including meaningful experience operating at the Staff Engineer, Principal Engineer, Architect, or equivalent level

\\n - Deep, production experience with Next.js, React, Tailwind CSS, and a modern cloud stack (AWS, Vercel, Cloudflare, or similar)
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\n - A track record of driving specific technical decisions, not just participating in them, regardless of your current title
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\n - Strong instincts around documentation, security, and operational resilience
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\n - Comfortable operating at a senior/staff level of scope even if your title hasn\'t caught up yet.
\\n
\\n
\\n
