Responsibilities
:
1. Gather requirements from multiple stakeholders on a project
2. Lead architectural design and technical direction for high-impact initiatives
3. Guide multiple engineering teams in the adoption of scalable, maintainable solutions
4. Collaborate across teams to gather requirements and align on priorities
5. Promote engineering excellence through design reviews, mentorship, and best practices
6. Continuously explore and evaluate new technologies, methodologies, and tools
7. Ensure that all solutions are robust, secure, and performant in production environments
8. Champion a culture of automation, reliability, and continuous improvement
Requirements
Requirements
9. Programming Languages: Proficiency in Python is a must. Knowledge of any other programming languages is a plus.
10. Hands-on Engineering Leadership: Requires a senior-level engineer proficient in designing, implementing, and maintaining scalable software systems. Regular code contributions and leading by example in both architecture and implementation are expected
11. Technical Product Ownership: Involves shaping product direction — gathering and refining requirements, translating them into technical goals, and aligning them with broader engineering strategies. Experience in technical product management or direct ownership of product roadmaps is highly valued
12. Full Lifecycle Responsibility: Encompasses ownership of the entire lifecycle of major components, from initial concept through prototyping, delivery, and ongoing evolution. A balance between short-term iteration and long-term scalability and extensibility is essential
13. Cross-Functional Collaboration: Demands active communication with engineering teams, product managers, and stakeholders across departments. Requires the ability to align different viewpoints, prioritize effectively, and turn feedback into actionable plans
14. Strategic Thinking + Execution: While the primary focus remains on building, it's important to step back, understand broader product and organizational goals, and make informed engineering trade-offs within that context
Real-world Challenge: Building a Unified Dependency Graph
One of our core goals is to map the software supply chain for thousands of applications. You will lead the design of a system that ingests projects and calculates their full dependency trees.
The Complexity:
15. Variable Definitions: \"Dependency\" means something different in every language. We have to handle static vs. dynamic linking, compile-time vs. runtime scopes, and version ranges (e.g., ^1.2.0).
16. Context Awareness: The system must understand that dependencies often change based on the environment (e.g., specific libraries for GPU support or Windows).
17. Tool Variance: The system must mimic the logic of various package managers (Pip, Poetry, Maven, Gradle) to ensure accuracy.
The Staff Engineer's Mission:
18. Research & Strategy: Analyze how 5+ languages handle packages and design a universal data model to store them efficiently.
19. Algorithm Design: Create logic to automatically resolve complex dependency trees at scale.
20. Consensus: Work with multiple teams to implement this standard across the company.
