About the position

You perform

assessment and software architecture of planned product features, including the discussion of technical design options and roadmap dependencies with the product stakeholders and other technical participants.

You are comfortable to temporarily assume the perspective of a corporate stakeholder and present technical alternatives so that the product owner can make an informed decision based on your advice.

 

You implement and own production services. You are able to deliver software based on varying implementation criteria, ranging from a fast throwaway PoC to a mission critical, maintainable, testable, and well documented service. It is part of your role that you advise the clients on implementation tradeoffs based on product innovation, reliability, and maintenance requirements.

 

You are willing to take on many different tasks in early technical product development, even if they are not part of your core competencies. At the same time, you keep an eye out for limitations and inefficiencies to suggest a different distribution of work if this becomes economically viable.
