  • Contribute to full stack development of customer facing features and developer workflows within Workbench, including productivity enhancements leveraging automation to improve developer efficiency and reduce iteration time.

  • Participate in system hardening efforts, including secure access control considerations, and platform reliability safeguards to ensure production grade stability and operational safety.
