Job Description
We’re building scalable, data-driven product systems and looking for a Staff Software Developer with strong engineering skills and a track record of designing and delivering complex, production-grade systems. You’ll lead the design and delivery of critical product components, collaborate closely with technical leads and senior stakeholders, and play a key role in driving technical quality, scalability, and engineering standards across a core product area.
Overview
Own critical components end-to-end and deliver measurable improvements in system quality, scalability, and reliability. You operate independently, drive design decisions, and elevate engineering standards through technical leadership and mentorship.
What you’ll do
Own delivery for significant features or systems: clarify requirements, design solutions, execute, ship, and iterate.
Design and build scalable backend services, APIs, and data pipelines that support core product functionality.
Drive system design decisions, balancing scalability, performance, reliability, and cost.
Define how quality is measured for your area (success metrics, testing strategy, observability) and automate it wherever possible.
Lead structured experimentation: define hypotheses, evaluate results, and translate insights into product and system improvements.
Improve operational readiness: deployment automation, monitoring/alerting, incident response, and performance optimization.
Mentor engineers through design reviews, code reviews, and hands‑on technical guidance.
Influence engineering best practices, architecture decisions, and long-term technical direction.
Engineering Expectations
Strong system design skills with the ability to break down ambiguous problems into scalable technical solutions.
Ability to evaluate new technologies, tools, and approaches, and recommend solutions based on trade‑offs, impact, and ROI.
Builds systems that are secure, reliable, and compliant by design, partnering with cross‑functional teams when needed.
Drives technical alignment across teams and contributes to improving engineering standards and processes.
How we work
We balance exploration with delivery — test ideas quickly, then product ionize what works.
“Done” means quality goals are met, followed by continuous improvement in scalability, performance, and reliability.
The team owns systems end-to-end (build, release, reliability).
Years of experience
Overall: 6+ years in software engineering
Relevant: 3+ years building and shipping production systems in product teams
Technical (hands‑on coding): 5+ years
Required Skills & Knowledge
Strong software engineering fundamentals and advanced system design experience
Hands‑on coding in Python and/or Type Script (or similar), building APIs, services, and data pipelines
Experience designing and scaling distributed systems in production environments
Strong experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure), CI/CD, automated testing, and observability
Proven ability to own systems end-to‑end, from design through production and…
