• Troubleshoot complex production issues across systems and help establish patterns that improve platform resilience
• Contribute to the long-term architecture of Muck Rack's revenue platform, ensuring solutions remain modular, maintainable, and extensible as self-service purchasing and Product-Led Growth capabilities expand
