Staff Engineer, Cloud

Uppgiften

As Staff Engineer for Cloud, you set technical direction across multiple domains and teams, not just one. Where a Lead owns a single domain end to end, you operate at the level above it: spotting where domains need to work together, resolving disputes that a single team can't settle alone, and lending your judgement to the hardest technical problems wherever they surface. This is a hands-on, individual-contributor role. You have no direct reports; your influence comes from technical credibility, sound judgement, and a track record of being right about hard things. You work closely with Leads, Engineering Managers, Product, and our Principal Engineer to keep architecture, sequencing, and trade-offs coherent across Cloud as it grows. Set technical direction across multiple Cloud domains and teams, identifying where local decisions need to fit into a coherent whole. Lead high-impact, cross-team technical initiatives end to end, staying close enough to the code and production systems to make grounded calls. Partner with Leads, the Principal Engineer, Product, and Engineering Managers to align architecture, surface trade-offs, and keep dependencies visible. Set and uphold engineering standards for correctness, testing, security, observability, performance, and data integrity across the teams you touch. Resolve technical disagreements that cross domain boundaries, make the call, and document the reasoning so others can follow it. Review designs and code, and mentor senior engineers directly through real work, multiplying your impact through others. Turn recurring incidents and cross-domain friction into durable systemic fixes rather than one-off patches.
