• Champion engineering excellence: raise the bar on code quality, reliability, observability, and performance through design reviews, code reviews, and test strategy.
• Build systems that are secure, auditable, and compliant with Wayfair’s data and access standards, particularly for supplier- and finance-adjacent workflows.
• Proactively identify and reduce operational toil (incidents, manual interventions, noisy alerts) through automation, better instrumentation, and thoughtful design.
• Mentor and support L1–L3 engineers on the team, helping them grow their technical depth and ownership.
• Contribute to the longer-term technical strategy and roadmap for PH Supplier Journeys, including platform simplification and deprecation of legacy systems where appropriate.
