Pairing, mobbing, and working through ideas together is how you prefer to work, not a compromise Comfortability with ambiguity - You'll regularly pick up half-formed problems, figure out what's actually needed, engage with stakeholders, and shape the solution yourself Being Technically Flexible - W e work across infrastructure, platform tooling, CI/CD, and multiple languages including Java, Go, Python, and JavaScript. You don't need to be an expert in all of them, but you're genuinely comfortable picking up unfamiliar tools and technologies A focus on the customer - Y ou take pride in helping other engineers. Supporting squads through in-hours support is a core part of the role, and you see it as valuable work, not a chore Excitement about AI - W e're leading the adoption of AI tooling across the business, including agentic AI and developer productivity tools. It's our biggest priority this year. You don't need to be an AI expert, but you should be genuinely excited about how AI can change the way engineers work, and eager to experiment
