- Architect, deploy, and manage cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure) to support growth and reliability.
- Contribute to architectural decisions, including system design for scalability, security, and fault tolerance.
- Establish engineering best practices, including testing, CI/CD, and monitoring.

- Collaborate closely with the founding team on product direction, roadmap, and customer feedback.
- Take ownership of projects end-to-end, balancing speed of execution with technical excellence.
