  • Become an expert in infrastructure performance, helping us optimize from the application level all the way through the firmware

  • Build for resilience. Our goal is that nobody's pager goes off, ever. Are we there yet? No. Are we really close? Very. While we work on that - participate in a weekly on-call rotation
