Senior Software Engineer, Full Stack
Secure Code Warrior
As a Senior Full Stack Software Engineer, you are a seasoned and capable technical leader who sets the tone for a healthy team culture. You are responsible for delivering end-to-end solutions—from initial discovery through to final delivery—and are regarded as a "safe pair of hands" capable of delivering high-quality software with minimal guidance.
You will leverage a diverse technical stack including Go, Java, Node.js, TypeScript, and React; while not a strict requirement, exposure to Kubernetes and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) is highly valued to help us maintain a scalable and maintainable environment.Impact & Scope
Business Significance: Make core contributions to projects that significantly impact our users, employees, and business goals.
Technical Authority: Act as a recognized expert, contributing to the development of organizational best practices and engineering standards.
Strategic Input: Understand the broader business context to guide your work and provide constructive feedback to leadership and cross-functional peers.
Mentorship: Realize impact beyond individual code by teaching, mentoring junior engineers, and advancing our architectural state.
Technical Craft & Architecture
Backend Proficiency: Design and maintain robust, scalable services with deep expertise in at least one of our core backend languages: Go, Java, or Node.js.
Architectural Advocacy: Champion well-designed, maintainable solutions. You will produce design documents that justify architectural choices and propose improvements to existing codebases.
Cloud & DevOps: Opportunity to collaborate on the management and deployment of components within Kubernetes environments. Exposure to Terraform or other IaC tools is a plus, ensuring infrastructure is treated with the same rigor as application code.
Modern Web: Build intuitive, high-performance user interfaces using React and TypeScript.
Full Stack Ownership: Take responsibility for the entire software development lifecycle, ensuring seamless integration between frontend experiences and backend logic.
