The Role
Are you ready to take your engineering career to the next level? We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our high-performing, cross-functional squad, where innovation meets impact. You’ll play a central role in building scalable, cloud-native systems using the latest in AI, automation, and modern architecture.
This is more than just a coding job—you’ll be involved in product development, architectural decisions, and engineering culture. If you’re passionate about writing clean, well-tested code and collaborating with talented peers, this is your opportunity to make a real difference.
What you will be doing:
* Code That Matters: Design, build, and maintain robust full-stack solutions across our platform using TypeScript, AWS, GraphQL, and more.
* Own the Stack: From frontend to backend to infrastructure, take full ownership of the code you write and the systems you build.
* Innovation First: Help integrate AI and automation into our products, solving real-world problems in smarter ways.
* Collaborate & Learn: Engage in pair programming, code reviews, and technical discussions that drive engineering excellence.
* Build It Right: Apply a test-driven mindset with robust automated testing and CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions).
* Keep It Running: Ensure systems are secure, scalable, observable (DataDog), and performant in production.
What we are looking for:
* Senior-Level Expertise: Proven experience as a Senior Engineer or multiple years in software engineering roles.
* API & Data Mastery: Skilled in building resilient APIs (REST/GraphQL) and managing backend services & databases.
* TDD Enthusiast: Proficient with testing frameworks like Jest, Pact, and a strong belief in quality-first development.
* CI/CD Experience: Shipped code using GitHub Actions (or similar) and know how to keep the pipeline green.
* Observability & Reliability: Experience with monitoring and alerting tools like DataDog.
* Proactive Problem-Solver: You take initiative, work independently, and thrive on solving complex technical challenges.
