Stay hands-on: write code review designs and PRs and drive whole features across backend web and mobile coordinating delivery across all three.
Own the teams technical roadmap. Decide how the systems evolve keep reliability and tech-debt risk in check and make the architectural calls that matter.
Partner with your PM and Design and give sharp feedback on whats worth building and why.
Work across boundaries with the teams we build alongside: Account Sharing on joint accounts Send on how money moves in and out Wise Platform on products they build on top of account.
