Senior Software Engineer

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience). 8–12 years of software engineering experience, with deep expertise in backend systems (Node.js, PostgreSQL) and experience with modern front-end frameworks (React, TypeScript). Proven track record of architecting and delivering scalable systems in production environments. Experience mentoring engineers and raising the technical bar through reviews and design feedback. Strong systems thinking with the ability to evaluate tradeoffs in scalability, reliability, and maintainability. Experience designing for observability and operational excellence (e.g., logs, alerts, dashboards, runbooks). Comfortable operating in ambiguity and driving clarity across product, engineering, and business stakeholders. Familiarity with regulated domains (e.g., healthcare, fintech) and high-availability infrastructure. Experience with containerized cloud environments (Docker, AWS ECS/EKS), CI/CD automation, and infrastructure as code. Exposure to event-driven architecture or microservices with asynchronous workflows.

Develop scalable backend services (Node.js, TypeScript) and performant user-facing applications (React, Next.js). Design extensible system architectures and make pragmatic trade-offs. Own full lifecycle delivery of complex features. Ensure high availability and observability of services. Set and uphold strong engineering standards via code reviews, technical mentorship, and design documentation. Partner with product, design, and stakeholders. Lead technical design reviews and system decomposition efforts. Proactively identify risks and gaps in operational or architectural resilience. Collaborate closely across engineering to reduce knowledge silos. Participate in on-call rotations and lead post-incident reviews.
