- Improve reliability, observability, and incident response across device, network, and system layers.
- Lead a small team (1–2 engineers), setting technical direction while remaining highly hands-on.

- Ability to influence across teams and work effectively in a fast-moving, startup environment.
- Startup experience preferred (Series C/D a plus), with a willingness to be scrappy and pragmatic.
- Prior management experience is a plus but not required.
