Role Overview

We’re looking for an experienced Senior Software Engineer who excels in technical problem-solving and has a broad impact within engineering teams. You’re skilled at designing and shipping high-quality code, with a strong focus on developer experience, scalability, and performance. You have contributed to shared frameworks or design systems and take pride in supporting others to adopt better development patterns.

As a Senior Software Engineer, you’ll contribute to shaping the way our SaaS products are developed and experienced. Your work will help product teams deliver faster, safer, and more consistent customer experiences. You’ll actively collaborate with peers in Engineering and UX to build a unified frontend platform that brings multiple SaaS products together into a single, scalable application.

In this role, you’ll be a builder, collaborator, and mentor. You’ll work alongside others to design reusable UI frameworks, modernize legacy codebases, and support engineering teams as they adopt improved patterns, tooling, and practices.

Key Responsibilities

  • Your contributions will make a real difference. Your work will help accelerate development and improve consistency across our suite of SaaS products, directly supporting the foundation of our unified platform.
  • You’ll take on technical challenges that matter. Whether it’s designing robust platform architecture or enhancing the developer experience, you’ll engage with projects that require thoughtful problem-solving and a focus on usability and scale.
  • You’ll thrive in an environment that trusts your expertise. We encourage our engineers to take initiative, make meaningful decisions, and see the tangible results of their efforts, without having to navigate layers of bureaucracy.

  • NOTE: Candidates must reside in The United States or Canada.

    Qualifications

  • Experience working on a production SaaS application (AWS, Azure, or GCP). You understand how to ship, maintain, and debug production code.
  • Strong mentorship skills, with the ability to guide and challenge peers and junior developers.
  • Bachelor’s degree in a Computer Science related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • Nice To Have Skills

  • Experience with the rest of our frontend stack (e.g. MUI, Vite[st], Tanstack, Emotion) and beyond (e.g. AWS, Docker, Grafana, AzDO)
  • Experience improving frontend DX through better tooling, faster local dev loops, observability, feature flagging, CI/CD pipelines, etc.
  • Familiarity with design systems, accessibility, and internationalization best practices.
  • Understanding of AI systems, including LLM architectures, token generation, and MCP frameworks.
  • Enthusiasm for using agentic AI and other modern practices as a key part of the SDLC.
