Senior Software Development Engineer in Test, Recharge

• Execution: You want to get things done
• You’re energized by getting product in front of customers, and prefer an iterative approach with regular deliveries to your stakeholders versus all-at-once major releases
• You see QA as a valuable stakeholder in enabling development teams, rather than an auditor simply finding bugs
• You hold yourself accountable for shipping regularly
• You understand merchant feedback is key in building the right thing and are flexible to handle changes in direction
• Engineering excellence: You have strong experience in building complex systems, both in zero-to-one contexts and incremental changes to existing systems
• You’re confident in contributing to both paradigms
• You think about quality, reliability, and observability, and know how to take a risk-based approach in balancing these concerns with speed of delivery. (And, also, you’re pretty familiar with Python
• You’re going to use it a lot here.)
• Communication: You are a sound communicator across multiple mediums, including in-person, video, chat, and written documentation
• You enjoy regular collaboration with others and believe it’s important to ship out high quality work
• While you understand the value of focused work, you believe that feedback from your peers and brainstorming on architecture is important to producing something great
• Pragmatic: You productively work with your leadership, your product counterparts, and your team to deal with the realities on the ground on a day-to-day basis
• You know plans change as we learn, and you’re flexible to deal with those changes as they come
• Fuzzy requirements are far more common than clearly defined customer expectations, and you’re able to help work through the ambiguity with your teammates
• Bias for action: You are independent and self-driven, with a high degree of ownership over problems
• You err on the side of taking action when needed, and know how to balance this with the need to research and understand problems
• Kindness and respect: You strive to be a positive influence on the team
• You have respect for yourself, your teammates, your leaders, and your stakeholders, and you expect that others have that same respect for you
• You want this role to be a place where your contributions are understood and valued, and you want to work with others to make sure that happens
• Ambitious: You’re looking to grow
• Whether that means a staff engineer role one day or a management role, you’re looking to push yourself and raise the bar for your teammates
• You want to succeed, and you want to do the right things to succeed with us
• You’re looking for a role where you can make a meaningful impact, because you know that’s the ticket upward
