Since its commercial rollout, the platform has fueled exponential growth, optimizing procurement for thousands of businesses while setting new benchmarks for speed, transparency, and efficiency.

• Act as a quality advocate, proactively identifying gaps, edge cases, and opportunities to improve overall product reliability

• Strong communicator who can work effectively with both engineers and non-technical stakeholders
• Proactive, curious, and eager to champion product quality across all stages of development
