    • Take ownership for the quality of the engineering done on the team
    • Mentor and help other engineers on the team to grow
    • Of course, this is just a sample of the kinds of work this role will require! You should assume that your role will encompass other tasks, too, and that your job duties and responsibilities may change from time to time at Etsy's discretion, or otherwise applicable with local law.
