This is a hands-on technical role for someone who wants real ownership: you'll work directly with our CTO and senior engineer to shape technical direction, dig into hard problems across the stack, and provide leadership and mentorship to our offshore engineering and QA team based in Kathmandu, Nepal. We've also built AI directly into how our team works day to day - our engineers use Claude as part of the development process - and we're actively exploring how AI capabilities can be built into our own product going forward. This role will have a voice in that direction. If you're looking for a role where your architectural decisions matter, where you can build real relationships with a talented distributed team, and where you'll have a direct line to leadership rather than being buried in process - this is that role. What You'll Do * Partner with our CTO and senior engineer to define technical direction and architecture for our product as it scales. * Architect scalable SQL Server databases - schema design, in-memory optimization, complex T-SQL, stored procedures, indexing, and execution plan tuning. * Take a leadership role with our offshore engineering and QA team - providing technical guidance, code/design review, and mentorship. * Design, develop, and maintain both front-end (React, TypeScript, HTML/CSS) and back-end (SQL Server, related technologies) systems. * Develop and consume RESTful APIs and microservices to connect front-end and back-end systems cleanly. * Drive technical design decisions for new features and product evolution, balancing speed with long-term maintainability. * Identify and help prioritize technical debt alongside new feature work. * Write and maintain technical documentation, and implement unit/integration tests to keep code quality and reliability high. * Use AI tools (including Claude) as part of your own development workflow, and help evaluate where AI can be built directly into our product. * Hold regular early-morning or late evening (ET) working sessions with our Kathmandu team, which is roughly 10 hours ahead.
