You will own significant pieces of the platform end-to-end - from API design and backend services to frontend systems and browser-side experiences. You will partner closely with the Staff Engineer and Director of Engineering to make architectural decisions, set quality standards, and accelerate the team toward meaningful milestones. This role requires both breadth and depth. You are comfortable owning a problem from design through delivery, writing the code and the tests, and helping less experienced engineers do the same. You understand that great infrastructure and great product experience are not in tension - they are the same problem viewed from different angles. What You Need to Succeed * Own significant features and platform components end-to-end - from technical design through production delivery * Build backend services, APIs, and frontend systems that power a real-time collaborative content platform * Contribute meaningfully to architectural decisions - your opinion matters and will be sought * Write clean, well-tested code and help establish quality standards for the team - there is no dedicated QA on this team * Mentor and support SE II engineers through code review, pairing, and technical guidance * Collaborate with product and design to translate ambiguous requirements into concrete technical plans * Integrate AI tooling concretely into your development workflow and into the product * Help define how the team works - process, standards, and engineering culture are all being built right now ## Related Videos - [Developing the Backend with Stefan Lingler, CTO at Shpock](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100360-developing-the-backend-with-stefan-lingler-cto-at-shpock) - [Beyond Webhooks: The Future of Scalable API Event Delivery](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100312-beyond-webhooks-the-future-of-scalable-api-event-delivery) - [Putting the Graph In GraphQL With The Neo4j GraphQL Library](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/257-putting-the-graph-in-graphql-with-the-neo4j-graphql-library) - [Empowering Thousands of Developers: Our Journey to an Internal Developer Platform](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1519-empowering-thousands-of-developers-our-journey-to-an-internal-developer-platform) - [Meet Your New BFF: Backend to Frontend without the Duct Tape](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/682-meet-your-new-bff-backend-to-frontend-without-the-duct-tape) - [GraphQL + Apollo + Next.js: A Lovely Trio](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/311-graphql-apollo-next-js-a-lovely-trio) ## Related Articles - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [Dev Digest 137 - AI'm not sure about this](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/485-dev-digest-137-ai-m-not-sure-about-this) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [Dev Digest 132 - Binging WADFlix?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/473-dev-digest-132-binging-wadflix) - [What is Agentic Programming and Why Should Developers Care?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/625-what-is-agentic-programming-and-why-should-developers-care)
