- Plan, build, and monitor periodic ETL jobs for ingesting 3rd-party data
- Monitor and optimize our PostgreSQL database performance and structure
- Work with a team of engineers, designers, and stakeholders to plan, build, and deliver new features, bugfixes, and under-the-hood updates every sprint

- Help grow the team through mentorship, coaching, and knowledge transfer
- Coordinate with other members of the team for new releases, breaking changes, and platform upgrades
- Work quickly and independently to make intuitive product decisions when necessary
- We are fully remote and try to keep meetings laser-focused and to a minimum so everyone can do the thing they came here to do... which was probably not a marathon of Zoom calls
