About the Role
The FSH approach to building highly configurable software is modeled on Postgres. We describe what a product does as opposed to how it works. To do this at scale and with speed we heavily rely on a set of internal code generation tools that translate declarative configuration files into bespoke full stack applications. Our platform engineering team maintains these tools, often treating other teams as the customer.
