At Life.Church, our Digital Product team builds technology that helps people take their next step in their faith journey. As a Staff Software Engineer, you’ll design and build solutions that support the systems and platforms used across our campuses and ministries, helping deliver reliable, scalable tools that serve people every week.

The Digital Product team equips and empowers our campus and ministry teams through tools like Rock RMS, the Church Online Platform, and the Life.Church app and website. In this role, you’ll contribute directly to development while also guiding technical direction, partnering with other engineers to ensure solutions are well-designed, aligned, and built to last.

At Life.Church, our mission is simple: to lead people to become fully devoted followers of Christ. We believe technology plays a key role in how people engage with the church, and we’re committed to building tools that make that experience clear, accessible, and impactful.

What You'll Do

  • Lead design and implementation of complex systems that span multiple projects or teams.
  • Own technical direction within your area and ensure solutions are scalable and maintainable.
  • Review and guide complex technical work, helping raise the bar for quality and consistency.
  • Partner with engineers to align on best practices and shared approaches.
  • Support and mentor engineers across levels, providing practical guidance and feedback.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve complex, high-impact technical issues.
  • Contribute to improving team practices, tools, and long-term technical direction.

    • What It Takes to Thrive

  • Strong technical depth with experience building and scaling production systems.
  • Ability to guide technical decisions and influence others without formal authority.
  • Experience designing systems with long-term maintainability in mind.
  • Comfort balancing hands-on work with supporting and guiding others.
  • Clear communication and ability to simplify complex ideas.
  • Alignment with Life.Church’s mission and desire to build things that help people grow in their faith.

    • Technical Experience

    You should bring deep experience in at least one area and be comfortable working across systems:

    • Backend systems (Python, Golang, APIs, distributed systems).
    • Mobile development (Flutter/Dart, iOS/Swift, Android).
    • Web development (React, Node.js, TypeScript).
    • Cloud infrastructure and scalable system design.

    What You Bring

  • High School Diploma or GED.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science required.
  • 7+ years of related work experience.
  • Track record of delivering complex systems and supporting other engineers.
  • Ability to contribute both independently and as a technical leader within a team.
