Are you comfortable scaling high demand software? Application level sharding? Software reliability, architecture, storage systems, HTTP, security, privacy, linux, and maybe even Ruby on Rails or python? Are you the person everyone asks questions?
We need a very senior engineer (10+ years experience) on our software infrastructure engineering team. We need someone who is willing to help others grow. We need someone with an answer, who doesn't assume they have "the" answer. Someone curious and comfortable with uncertainty, who asks questions and doesn't worry about how they might look for it, even if the request is just "help!" or "wtf?". Someone comfortable waiting for understanding, agreement, pair / mob programming, and code reviews across teams.
