What you'll do

  • Collaborate in a cross-functional, autonomous team to deliver features and continuous improvements, often working from rough prototypes or early concepts rather than polished designs.
  • Translate business needs into technical solutions by working closely with the Product team.
  • Occasionally, participate in customer conversations to validate that what you're building actually solves their problems.
  • Comfortable using modern AI-assisted development tools (Cursor, Claude, Codex, or similar) to accelerate development.
  • Proactively identify issues through monitoring and observability data. Then fix them, don't just flag them.
  • Contribute to architectural decisions that keep our platform scalable, reliable, and maintainable.
  • Share what you know, learn from others, and help your teammates grow. Engineering here is collaborative. We win together.

What they require

  • Significant experience (typically 6+ years) building and owning production systems, with strong full-stack skills in JavaScript/TypeScript and deep backend expertise, scalability, and performance fundamentals (ideally Node.js).
  • Experience building user interfaces, ideally with React.
  • Experience developing well-tested APIs with GraphQL.
  • Solid knowledge of relational databases (especially PostgreSQL), including schema design and query optimization.
  • Active use of AI-assisted development tools (Claude, Cursor, Codex, or similar) in your workflow.
  • Familiarity with cloud-native development (AWS, GCP).
  • Experience with monitoring and observability tooling (New Relic, Datadog, or similar).
  • Openness and experience with on-call and operational work (investigations, incident response, etc.).
  • Ability to work with ambiguity: rough prototypes, evolving requirements, and imperfect information. You use judgment and experience to fill the gaps.
  • Strong product sense. You think about why you're building something, not just how. You care about the customer experience, not just the code.
  • Experience working directly with customers or in customer-facing roles.
  • Familiarity with headless CMS platforms or content infrastructure.

Benefits

  • yearly learning budget to attend training and conferences.
