Full Job Description
What You'll Do

  • Build and ship complete features end-to-end. You'll write clean, maintainable code to rollout and monitoring in production
  • Collaborate closely with the founders, PMs, Sales and CS to understand product requirements and navigate trade-offs
  • Take ownership of your work with a strong attention to detail and a bias toward getting things done
  • Contribute across the full stack with a lean toward backend and distributed systems as you grow your depth over time
  • Learn fast, ask good questions, and raise the bar


About You

  • 2-4 years of professional software engineering experience shipping high quality code
  • Ability to work independently with a strong sense of ownership. We'll give you the keys and projects, but we want you to act like an owner.
  • Excellent debugging and problem-solving instincts; you dig in until you understand why and fix the core issues vs just the ticket
  • Strong communicator who can collaborate across engineering, product, and sales


Bonus Skills

  • Familiarity with our stack: TypeScript, Node.js, Next.js, React, LLM-agnostic and Mongo.
  • Any experience with real-time systems or event-driven architectures (WebSockets, etc.)
  • Experience integrating third-party APIs.
  • Curiosity about or hands-on experimentation with LLM APIs - you've built something with them, even if it's with Claude Code
