Job description
We are seeking a senior software engineer with strong system design instincts and an interest in shaping how systems evolve over time. This is a hands-on role focused on building, maintaining, and improving production software while contributing to technical direction and architectural decisions. You'll work closely with cross-functional teams to deliver scalable, reliable solutions, with opportunities to take on increasing system-level responsibility as the product and organization grow. Main Responsibilities
- Design, develop, test, and maintain software solutions across the stack, from Back End services to Front End interfaces.
- Collaborate with product, design, and operations teams to translate requirements into robust, scalable, and maintainable software.
- Own features and services end to end, contribute to system architecture discussions, and support critical initiatives across services.
- Observe and analyze existing systems to identify improvement opportunities; propose and implement enhancements with a focus on reliability, performance, and security.
- Write clean, documented, and testable code; contribute to design reviews, code reviews, and best-practice governance.
- Embrace ownership mindset: take initiative to solve problems, propose new ideas, and drive them to completion.
- Mentor junior teammates where appropriate and learn from peers to broaden your technical horizons.
Requirements
- Proven experience as a senior software engineer (hands-on coding in one or more major languages and ecosystems).
- A demonstrated interest in software architecture and system design; a track record of thinking beyond code to consider structure, scalability, and maintainability.
- A flexible, utility player mindset: comfortable working across the stack, embracing new challenges, and quickly adapting to changing priorities.
- Strong problem-solving skills, curiosity, and a bias for action; willingness to take initiative to move projects forward.
- Collaboration and communication skills: ability to articulate technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Exhibits a growth-oriented mindset with a drive to broaden system-level influence and progressively lead architectural direction.
- Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure) and modern DevOps practices.
- Familiarity with software design patterns, microservices, APIs, and data modeling.
- Prior exposure to architecture documentation, diagrams, and decision records.
- Contributions to open-source projects or personal side projects that demonstrate architectural thinking.
