Work is organized by project, with each staffed by a Project Manager, a Staff Engineer, Designers, and Developers. The Staff Engineer owns the planning and implementation of technical delivery and team efficiency, and works with the Project Manager to maintain the Product Requirements Document, Backlog, technical direction, and sprint planning. They commit directly to the codebase, pair program, lead code review, and use AI tools to speed up delivery without compromising quality. While not a direct supervisor, the Staff Engineer acts as technical expert and mentor to the team, and also assists in the pre-sales process through solutioning, scope refinement, and estimates. This position is fully remote within the United States and its Territories. In this role, you will report to the COO. You will not have any direct reports for supervision purposes, but you will help lead project-based teams. Responsibilities * Support teams of 2 to 6 developers, designers, and QA analysts of varying skill levels and experience, providing guidance to ensure delivery on project commitments and meet client expectations. * Co-lead delivery projects in partnership with the Project Manager to deliver projects on budget and on time. * Mentor team members on assigned projects to follow SmartLogic processes for product development, including effective and responsible use of AI-assisted tools, working with the Project Manager to plan weekly goals to keep projects on track. * Provide hands-on leadership for CI/CD pipelines, deployment strategies, AI innovations, environment configuration, and production operations. * Work closely with the COO, Operations Manager, Project Managers, and team to communicate project progress, challenges, and resourcing needs. * Partner with sales and consulting leadership on technical discovery, solution architecture, and rough-order-of-magnitude estimates that are timely and defensible, bringing consistency to how the team approaches quoting and estimating. * Design, review, and support scalable, secure cloud and server architectures (primarily AWS and Azure). * Serve as the technical expert on assigned projects, including QA and PR review, with attention to the quality and security of AI-assisted code. ## Related Videos - [Bringing digital education to refugee and host communities in remote regions of Africa](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/644-bringing-digital-education-to-refugee-and-host-communities-in-remote-regions-of-africa) - [WeAreDevelopers LIVE – AI, Freelancing, Keeping Up with Tech and More](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1786-wearedevelopers-live-ai-freelancing-keeping-up-with-tech-and-more) - [Shifting Stress to Progress— Understanding DevOps to do DevOps Better](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/268-shifting-stress-to-progress-understanding-devops-to-do-devops-better) - [Dev & Test in the Cloud?
