Responsibilities

Lead the design and development of high-quality, clean, scalable, and reusable code by setting and enforcing best practices for architecture, code reviews, testing, and deployment

Partner with product owners and stakeholders to shape requirements, break down complex problems, and own features end-to-end — from design and implementation through test automation, release, and production operation

Design software and APIs that are simple, intuitive, and extensible so customers can configure, extend, and integrate our platform to fit their specific workflows

Drive the evolution of our platform by contributing to the design and implementation of new products and features while continuously improving and modernizing the existing product suite

Act as a technical mentor and coach for engineers across the team, promoting knowledge sharing, pairing, and continuous improvement in how we design and build software

Champion engineering excellence — improving our observability, reliability, performance, and development workflows so teams can move faster with confidence

Collaborate across teams (Product, Design, QA, DevOps, Customer Success) to proactively identify risks, reduce complexity, and deliver solutions that create durable value for our customers

Required

8+ years of hands-on software engineering experience building and operating production systems, with advanced proficiency in .NET/C# and a track record of delivering scalable, reliable services

Expert front-end experience with Angular / AngularJS and the modern TypeScript/JavaScript ecosystem

Deep experience with MongoDB (ideally MongoDB Atlas), including schema design, performance tuning, and operating it in production

2+ years in a tech lead or Staff-level role, leading design, breaking down complex work, and mentoring engineers through reviews, pairing, and coaching

Experience designing and running cloud-based applications on AWS (or similar) using containers and Kubernetes, including CI/CD and deployment best practices

Hands-on experience with AWS serverless architectures, including services such as Lambda and Amazon Bedrock, and using them to build scalable, cost-effective, event-driven systems

Strong practical experience with large language models, including prompt engineering and LLM evaluation/testing, and using these capabilities to improve developer productivity or product features in a safe, measurable way

Strong observability skills using Datadog (or similar) to design and maintain dashboards, alerts, traces, and logs — and using these insights to diagnose, optimize, and prevent production issues

Hands-on experience integrating third-party APIs and services (e.g. Twilio, Plivo, Mailgun, Stripe) and building robust asynchronous workflows (e.g., background jobs, event listeners, scheduled tasks)

Comfort using modern AI coding assistants (e.g. Cursor, Claude Code) in your day-to-day workflow to accelerate delivery while maintaining code quality and security

Proven ability to debug and improve complex distributed systems, and to write efficient, maintainable code that supports long-term platform health

Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with experience working in agile, cross-functional teams and actively mentoring others

A strong ownership mindset – you proactively improve codebases, architecture, and processes, and drive initiatives that positively impact multiple products and teams, not just your own backlog

Experience leading end-to-end system and architecture design for large, multi-service platforms, making tradeoffs that balance reliability, scalability, cost, and delivery speed
