This is a senior IC role with broad surface area. Expect to own big bets, shaping direction, unblock teams, and raising the bar for how we build. You’ll partner tightly with PM, Design, and your fellow engineers. Your work will ripple across teams via reusable patterns, thoughtful abstractions, and crisp communication.

• Support and unblock peers through async reviews, pairing, and mentorship

• Work in an async-first way, aligning clearly on scope, tradeoffs, and outcomes

• Build across the stack, using TypeScript/React/Node with PostgreSQL, Redis, and Kubernetes under the hood

• ~6 - 10+ years of experience as a Software Engineer, including owning meaningful product or platform surfaces

• Systems thinking and pragmatic architectural judgment, especially in complex environments

• A track record of shipping in B2B SaaS or similarly demanding domains

• Clear, context-rich communication across PRs, RFCs, and collaborative docs

• Comfort navigating ambiguity and low-process, async environments

• Hands-on experience improving team velocity via tooling or process improvements

• Frontend: React, TypeScript, Vite, shared component libraries, client-side observability

• Backend: Node.js, PostgreSQL, Redis, secure RESTful APIs

• Infrastructure: Kubernetes, AWS, CI/CD pipelines
