Senior Site Reliability Architect


There are two parts of Prod Dev at it's simplest.

Building the Right thing... and Building the Thing Right.

Product software support engineers at Lessonly will be involved in both sides of that equation (which is true of all positions within the Lessonly P&E team), however, they will have specific responsibilities on the Building the Thing Right side.

Ultimately, product software engineers are the ones that build the primary experience that our customers interact with.

As a senior engineer that has chosen the delivery route, your expectations of being a positive influence on any squad or project you are a part of is much higher.
