Distributed Systems Mastery: Deep technical expertise in distributed systems architecture, with a firm command of reliability, scalability, performance, and cost tradeoffs behind company-defining decisions.

Leadership Under Ambiguity: Excellent judgment to make high-stakes technical calls under ambiguity, along with the influence needed to align cross-functional engineering teams behind them.

Talent Multiplier: A strong record of mentoring, coaching, and elevating the capabilities of senior engineers around you.
