This description is a summary of our understanding of the job description. Click on 'Apply' button to find out more. Role Description As a Staff Software Engineer, you’ll work directly with the CTO transforming what a small engineering organization can accomplish - operating at the intersection of architecture, execution, and culture. You’ll lead technical direction in high-gravity areas like data design, systems design, and API design. You’ll own thorny technical problems end-to-end - distributed systems that span the breadth of the product and interact with processes in the real world. You’ll make these systems reliable, performant, and operate them at scale. Much of that work happens in a TypeScript-heavy stack across: - React and Vite on the frontend - GraphQL and Node on the backend - Prisma and Postgres in the data layer - AWS services like Lambda and ECS in production Staff Software Engineers set the standard for how we build - through the quality of your work, the clarity of your communication, and your willingness to bring others along. This is a high-autonomy, high-impact role on a small team. Qualifications - You’ve designed and shipped complex software systems and can reason clearly about tradeoffs. - You can take a high-stakes, ambiguous problem from framing through shipped solution. - You’ve operated systems in production and know how to improve them over time rather than treating shipping as the finish line. - You’re actively adapting your workflow to make good use of AI tools while maintaining a high quality bar. - You make other engineers better through communication, technical judgment, and the quality of your work. - You operate from first principles and frame your decisions and communication based on clearly articulated technical reasoning rather than relying on hierarchy or authority. - You show humility in technical discussions, and you’re confident in your expertise and honest about its limits. Requirements - Architect and build systems spanning distributed systems, data design, and public APIs. - Build customer-facing features with a broad mandate end-to-end. - Work on agent-powered automation and our agency integrations layer. - Shape engineering practices around AI-native development: tooling, workflows, review processes, codebase design that is legible to both humans and AI. - Own technical decisions with broad impact and communicate the reasoning behind them, educating and empowering your colleagues along the way. - Drive cross-cutting technical initiatives like performance, reliability, developer experience, and architecture evolution. - Mentor and elevate other engineers through pairing, walkthroughs, and software design. - Work directly with the CTO on high-value problems and long-term technical strategy. Benefits - Salary: $185,000 - $225,000 - Medical, dental, vision, 401k match - Flexible remote-first culture with home office allowance - High-performance gear for an optimized local dev setup - Equity - Parental leave Company Description Ready to join us around the campfire? Come join a team of trailblazers making a BIG difference in the environmental programs for more than 20k facilities around the United States. We're on a mission to create a world where good for business is good for the environment. At Encamp, we believe we are better together – all of us, whatever our race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, age or physical ability. We strive to create an environment that encourages and celebrates diverse voices, backgrounds, and experiences. A cornerstone of our culture is the ability to bring their full, authentic selves to work every day. Encamp is committed to unbiased hiring practices and achieving minority representation above community averages.
