Job Description
We're at a critical inflection point in our product journey.

- Build scalable implementation systems
- Create repeatable processes, documentation, and tools that allow us to handle growing volume without proportionally growing the team. Develop and maintain API documentation and training materials for internal and external use
- Increase engineering velocity through clarity and focus
- Define clear product requirements, reduce ambiguity, and streamline cross-functional communication so engineering can move faster with fewer blockers and higher-quality output
