We’re looking for a Partner Engineer to operate at the intersection of engineering, product, and strategy. You’ll be the technical lead for our most important strategic partnerships, from architecting integrations, scoping complex systems work, and driving high-leverage collaborations from idea to production.
This is not a support role. You’ll own the technical strategy behind each partnership: evaluating feasibility, designing integration approaches, writing and reviewing code when needed, and leading execution across internal and external engineering teams.
The right person is a strong engineer who wants to apply their technical depth to broader, company-shaping initiatives, working directly with product partners to identify opportunities, turn ambiguous ideas into concrete technical plans, and ship integrations that meaningfully expand what our platform can do.
