Provide technical leadership during code reviews to ensure reliability, scalability, and alignment with product goals.

Partner with product managers and technical leads to define service requirements and incorporate feedback into future designs.

Act as an expert in debugging tools and methods, leading proactive and reactive development to resolve issues across teams.

Optimize deployments and runtime performance to meet business objectives, ensuring safe rollouts aligned with GitHub’s standards.

Drive improvements in development quality and team performance through tooling, automation, and knowledge sharing.

Lead product refinement through telemetry analysis, performance metrics, and experimentation frameworks to inform engineering decisions.

Develop strategies to identify and mitigate technical risks, including frameworks for risk assessment and contingency planning.

Shape the strategic vision for technology and product development, identifying opportunities for innovation and leading initiatives aligned with GitHub’s long-term goals.

Enterprise experience contributing technical solutions to high throughput services in production environments, such as systems profiling tools and distributed systems performance tuning.

Experience with Linux-based systems, containers, and software packaging or artifact delivery.

Experience troubleshooting build, test, and release failures across multiple layers of the stack.

Proven ability to improve engineering systems through automation, observability, and process simplification.

Bachelor’s or Master's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Math, Physics, Computer Engineering, or related field.

Preferred Qualifications:

Proven experience designing and operating high-throughput cloud-native distributed systems in production environments.

Deep understanding of performance profiling, observability, and telemetry-driven optimization, especially in Go or similar languages.
