Job Description

Staff Software Engineer

AlphaSense

• Set technical direction for your area - make build-vs-buy decisions, define architecture, and own the technical roadmap alongside product leadership. • Take ambiguous problems and make them concrete - scope work, identify risks, break down large initiatives into deliverable increments, and drive alignment across teams. • Design and deliver production-grade systems - scalable pipelines, robust services, and high-performance solutions that serve real users at scale. • Leverage AI tools as part of your workflow - you use AI-assisted development (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot) to accelerate your work and have formed opinions on when it helps and when it gets in the way. • Evaluate and integrate AI/ML capabilities into production systems when the problem calls for it - you don't need to be an ML researcher, but you're sharp enough to pick up LLMs, embeddings, or classification models and put them to work. • Drive cross-team technical initiatives - influence engineers and teams you don't manage. Lead RFCs, drive architectural reviews, and build consensus on hard technical decisions. • Own what you build - from requirements to release to production. You build it, you run it. You monitor SLOs/SLIs, troubleshoot production issues, and continuously improve reliability. • Raise the engineering bar - through code reviews, mentorship, technical documentation, and by modeling the standards you expect from others.

Job Requirements

  • Strong in Python (our primary backend language). Comfortable working across languages - you've shipped production code in at least two.
  • Designed and owned production systems serving real users at scale - not just contributed to them, but made consequential architectural decisions and lived with the outcomes.
  • Led cross-team technical initiatives without formal authority - driven migrations, platform changes, or architectural shifts that required aligning multiple teams.
  • Strong system design instincts - you think in terms of failure modes, data flow, scalability, and operational cost. You design for the system you'll maintain, not just the one you'll ship.
  • Deep DevOps and operational experience - Kubernetes, cloud infrastructure (AWS/Azure/GCP), CI/CD, observability. You don't throw code over the wall.
  • Track record of mentoring engineers and raising team standards - through pairing, reviews, RFCs, and leading by example.

Benefits

  • Health insurance
  • Remote work options
  • Professional development opportunities
