Where You’ll Go From Here

  • Kyruuvians in a Senior Engineer role can move in a linear career path to a Senior Engineer II position. From the Senior Engineer position, you can choose to develop along one of two tracks - individual contributor, as a Principal Software Engineer I, or management, as a Manager, Engineering.
  • Kyruus also loves to see an internal transfer. If a linear career path is not what you’re looking for, you can work with your manager and HR to explore lateral moves to other parts of the organization as you continue to grow with us.
