Your work will help unlock enterprise deals with major clients and support Zipline's commercial growth.

• Assumer la direction technique de la plateforme d'intégrations de Zipline en tant que contributeur individuel.
• Définir l'architecture et la feuille de route de la plateforme, construire des logiciels de production et permettre aux ingénieurs de livrer des intégrations API partenaires.
• Créer des SDK frontend et backend qui permettent aux partenaires de construire d'excellentes expériences client dans leurs propres applications.

• Leadership across teams. Define architecture and engineering standards across distributed engineering teams, enable independent execution through documentation and technical review, and align Product, Commercial, Finance, and Operations around platform priorities
• Staff-level delivery. 7+ years building and operating production backend or distributed systems, with demonstrated ownership of architecture and delivery across services and teams
• Reusable integration design. Ability to turn varied external APIs into reusable connector patterns with clear boundaries and testable contracts, including experience with automated integration testing and development environments
• Distributed systems depth. Strong skills in API design, data modeling, asynchronous workflows, schema evolution, eventual consistency, and idempotent processing
• Partner and product judgment. Communicate clearly with external engineering teams, turn ambiguous business needs into practical technical plans, and balance enterprise launch commitments with reusable platform investments
• Thoughtful AI adoption. Use AI tools to improve implementation, testing, debugging, and review while taking responsibility for correctness, security, and maintainability
• Production accountability. Demonstrated production ownership, including observability, on-call support, incident investigation, and improvements that prevent recurring failures. You can show how your work improved reliability or reduced integration effort
• Frontend SDK judgment. Experience building or supporting frontend libraries, SDKs, or embedded customer experiences, with the ability to reason about client-side integration, authentication, error handling, and usability in partner apps
• Developer platform experience. Experience building developer platforms, SDKs, or internal tooling used by other engineers to ship production software, ideally for external API integrations. You treat API usability, documentation, and compatibility as part of the product
• Hands-on engineering depth. Deep proficiency in Go, Python, or a comparable backend language, with experience building libraries, command-line tools, or developer workflows that make other engineers productive
