Role Description We are looking for an exceptional and ambitious engineer who enjoys architecting systems, working in an agile start-up development environment, and leveraging AI to redefine engineering velocity. As an engineer on our team, you will focus on backend development across all our products. - You will be the engineer others look to when the problem is hard, the path forward is unclear, or the stakes are high. - As a key individual contributor, you won't just build; you will bridge the gap between engineering and the broader business, translating long-term goals into technical reality. - Model engineering best practices that elevate our entire organization. - Thrive in building scalable, flexible systems with an emphasis on improving maintainability. Qualifications - 10+ years of experience in software engineering, with a demonstrated track record of leading and executing technically complex, high-impact initiatives from inception through delivery. - Recent experience working on a small, agile team contributing to all phases of the software development lifecycle in a start-up environment. - Primary experience in Go, comfortable working across existing .NET and TypeScript codebases. - Experience implementing event-driven architecture within microservices ecosystems using tools like Apache Kafka. - Experience creating database schemas that represent and support business processes. - Strong understanding of object-oriented programming, data structures, and algorithms. - Strong experience with AWS platforms, including an understanding of their capabilities and limitations. - Experience with CI/CD pipelines and automated testing frameworks. - Proven ability to operate across organizational lines, comfortable influencing without authority, building consensus among diverse teams, and driving decisions that require alignment across product, engineering, and business stakeholders. - Deep software engineering fundamentals, with experience in multi-product architectures. - Experience working in an environment shaped by acquisitions or rapid growth, with an appreciation for the technical and cultural complexity that comes with it. - A track record of making well-reasoned technical decisions, evaluating options carefully, and pushing back on the first solution when a better one exists. - Strong collaboration and communication skills, able to clearly communicate to both technical and non-technical audiences. - A bias for ownership, taking projects seriously from start to finish, holding yourself accountable for outcomes, and proactively identifying and resolving risk before it becomes a problem. - Comfort with ambiguity and a builder's mindset, thriving when the path forward isn't defined, and enjoying working through complexity, solving tough problems, and enabling others to move faster. Requirements - High Contribution: Maintain a high bar for individual execution by writing clean, efficient, and production-ready code. - Rigorous Testing & Validation: Lead by example in code quality by defining testing standards and utilizing AI to generate robust test suites and edge-case discovery that ensure comprehensive coverage. - Proactive Problem Solving: Personally identify and execute fixes for deep-seated bottlenecks, architectural bugs, and performance issues that impact system stability. - Modernize Tooling: Evaluate and integrate emerging AI-powered tools to enhance operational efficiency and developer productivity. - Architectural Oversight & Quality: Lead architectural evaluations and design reviews to ensure systems remain flexible and scalable as the business grows. - QA Partnership: Partner effectively with QA to define test strategies, improve automated testing coverage, and ensure a seamless handoff from development to production. - Operational Health: Lead incident response and postmortem processes, establishing best practices to prevent recurrence of high-severity issues. - Champion Standards: Maintain code quality, organization, and automation across the broader engineering organization. - Technical Multiplier: Elevate the engineers around you through rigorous code reviews, design feedback, and modeling mature, thoughtful engineering judgment. - Lead Technical Discussions: Move teams to decisions, ensuring the best ideas surface regardless of where they originate. - Foster Accountability: Champion a culture of quality, where engineers take pride in end-to-end ownership, technical excellence, and proficiency in leveraging AI tools. Benefits - Purpose-driven organization - Flexible time off - Remote-first - Flexible work hours - our employees are in multiple time zones - Medical & dental plans - Parental leave - Employee stock options
