Senior Software Engineer

Senior Full-Stack Engineer (NY)

We’re looking for a thoughtful Senior Full-Stack Engineer (6+ years experience) who thrives owning problems end-to-end. You’ll design and build AI-powered features that reach millions of job seekers, make pragmatic architectural decisions, and balance speed with long-term quality. This is not a backlog-ticket role; we want someone who takes a concept all the way to production, not just executes what’s handed to them.

• Build and maintain scalable backend services and user-facing applications
• Collaborate closely with product and design team, and other engineering teams to deliver high-impact features
• Make structural technical decisions and clearly articulate trade-offs when solving complex problems
• Take ownership of a product area, service, or technical domain and drive it forward
• Continuously improve system performance, reliability, and developer experience

• 6+ years of professional software engineering experience
• Strong foundation in programming and software design principles
• Proven experience building well-scoped, performant modern web applications
• Production experience with React or Next.js and at least one of the following languages:
  Go, Python, or Java Script
• Comfort navigating the full stack and pulling in what’s needed to ship
• Strong ownership mindset and ability to work effectively within cross-functional teams

• Experience working with AI tools, prompt engineering, or integrating AI into development workflows
• Search infrastructure experience (Elasticsearch or similar)
• Familiarity with message brokers (e.g., Kafka, RabbitMQ, AWS SQS)
• Database optimization experience (e.g., MariaDB or similar relational databases)
• Experience with modern frontend tooling (e.g., Vite)
• Background in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience

• Consistently delivers product features with high quality and strong attention to detail
• Uses AI-assisted development fluently, producing clean and maintainable code at higher velocity
• Builds strong partnerships with engineers, product and design, contributing to team and organizational growth
• Proactively surfaces problems and drives them to resolution
• Makes the codebase, the system, and the team around you measurably better over time

$200,000 - $220,000 a year

• Competitive compensation: base salary $200,000 ~ $220,000 + stock options
• Home office setup stipend
• Gym membership reimbursement
