Responsibilities

Connect engineering work to customer outcomes

• Learn how customers and staff use the product, including its important workflows, constraints, and known limitations.
• Use product and business metrics to help the team decide what to build, what to prioritize, and how to measure whether a change helped.
• Participate in customer or support discussions when your technical context can help clarify the problem and identify an actionable next step.

Own meaningful features end to end

• Turn an unclear problem into a shared plan, a sensible technical approach, and a clear definition of done.
• Stay with the feature through design, implementation, testing, rollout, monitoring, and follow-up instead of treating release as the finish line.
• Coordinate with Product, Design, Test, and adjacent teams so dependencies, decisions, and owners are visible early.

Apply sound engineering judgment

• Make technical decisions within the team’s domain across service structure, APIs, data, reliability, security, observability, and maintainability.
• Record important choices, alternatives, trade-offs, and deferred work so other engineers can understand and build on the decision.
• Choose solutions that support the wider system, not only the quickest local implementation.

Build reliable software

• Write readable, maintainable production code with appropriate unit, integration, and contract coverage.
• Design useful logs, metrics, dashboards, and alerts so the team can understand how a change behaves in production.
• Investigate complex problems across services and database layers, identify root causes, and keep the team oriented while resolving them.

Communicate clearly and early

• Share status, risks, dependencies, owners, and next steps before others have to ask.
• Explain technical trade-offs to Product and customer impact to non-engineering partners without relying on internal jargon.
• Question the problem before implementation begins and recommend a path forward when requirements or constraints are unclear.

Guide others and improve the team

• Coach junior and mid-level engineers through reviews, pairing, design discussions, and constructive feedback.
• Help the team turn retrospectives, story mapping, and improvement ideas into decisions and follow-through.
• Share useful improvements beyond the immediate feature when they can help another squad or engineering community.

Use AI-assisted development responsibly

• Use AI-assisted development tools where they improve speed or clarity, while independently validating correctness, security, maintainability, and test coverage.
• Understand and take ownership of every change that reaches production, regardless of how the initial code or test suggestion was produced.

Qualifications

• Demonstrated experience taking production software from an unclear problem through design, implementation, release, and follow-up.
• Strong hands-on experience developing and maintaining Java applications and services in a production environment.
• Experience with a modern Java framework, such as Spring or Spring Boot, and with designing maintainable service and API boundaries.
• Solid relational database skills, including SQL, schema design, indexing, transactions, migrations, query-performance troubleshooting, and choosing appropriate data-access patterns.
• An understanding of when relational data is the right fit and when a document, key-value, search, or other persistence approach may be appropriate.
• Experience designing or integrating REST APIs and, where relevant, asynchronous messaging or event-driven workflows.
• A practical testing approach that includes unit tests and the appropriate integration, contract, or end-to-end tests for the change.
• Experience with production observability, including structured logging, metrics, tracing, dashboards, and incident or problem investigation.
• Working knowledge of secure software practices, including authentication, authorization, secrets, data protection, and safe handling of customer information.
• Clear written and spoken communication with engineers, Product, Support, and other partners in a distributed or cross-functional environment.
• A record of helping other engineers grow through feedback, pairing, code review, or technical guidance.
• Equivalent practical experience is welcome; we assess demonstrated capability rather than using a degree or a strict years-of-experience cutoff as a proxy for readiness.

It’s Great to Have

• Experience in fitness, wellness, membership, subscription, booking, or other customer workflow products.
• Experience with cloud-hosted services, containers, CI/CD pipelines, and production release automation.
• Experience with NoSQL or search technologies, and performance or scalability improvements.
• Experience working with AI-assisted development practices and helping teammates validate AI-generated code safely.

Success in the First 6-12 Months

• You can lead a meaningful feature from problem definition through release, with the right partners involved and clear follow-up after launch.
• The team continues to rely on your technical decisions about structure, data, reliability, and how the change runs in production.
• You raise unclear requirements, risks, and dependencies early and make a clear recommendation about what should happen next.
• Junior and mid-level engineers finish work more effectively with your guidance and become more independent on similar problems over time.
• You can explain the feature in customer terms and identify the product or operational outcome it is intended to improve.
