About

We’re hiring a Lead Search Engineer to own the migration of our search infrastructure to a new platform that will meet our long-term objectives in capacity, performance, and features.

What you’ll do:

• Collaborate closely with product, data, and catalog teams in a small, autonomous environment where you own the full stack from data pipeline to query serving.
