PURPOSE

The Senior Software Engineer is responsible for designing, developing, testing, deploying, and supporting enterprise software applications and services that support member-facing digital experiences and internal business operations. This role partners with cross-functional technology and business teams to deliver scalable, reliable, and maintainable software solutions across web, mobile, and operational platforms.

The Senior Software Engineer contributes to system design, application architecture, integration development, operational support, and software delivery best practices while supporting the continued evolution of VASA Fitness technology platforms.

KEY RESPONSIBILITES AND COMPETENCIES

  • Design, develop, test, deploy, and maintain enterprise software applications and services.
  • Build and support APIs, integrations, and backend services supporting web, mobile, and operational systems.
  • Participate in software architecture, technical design, code reviews, and solution planning activities.
  • Collaborate with product, engineering, platform, and business teams to define technical requirements and deliver scalable solutions.

  • Support application reliability, performance, monitoring, troubleshooting, and incident resolution activities.

  • Develop secure, maintainable, and scalable software solutions aligned with organizational standards.
  • Participate in operational support and on-call responsibilities as required.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives related to software delivery, automation, and engineering processes.
  • Utilize modern development tools and technologies, including AI-assisted development tools, where appropriate.


QUALIFICATIONS
  • 8+ years building and operating production software at meaningful scale.
  • Strong work in at least one of TypeScript, Python, Go, or Rust, and willingness to pick up the others as needed. We are polyglot by design and choose the right tool per problem.
  • Solid AWS fluency -- Lambda, ECS/EKS, RDS, DynamoDB, SQS/SNS, API Gateway, IAM. You can design a service end-to-end on AWS without hand-holding.
  • Real experience with REST and event-driven architectures, including the messy parts: retries, idempotency, eventual consistency, schema evolution.
  • Comfort with CI/CD, infrastructure-as-code (Terraform or CDK), and modern testing practice.
  • Demonstrated, specific use of AI tools to ship engineering work. We want to hear what you have built -- agents, harnesses, evals, automations -- not what you have read about.
  • System design instincts: you can take an ambiguous business problem and turn it into a service, a schema, and a rollout plan.
  • Strong communication. You can write a design doc, run a code review without making people defensive, and tell a stakeholder why something will or will not work.
  • Bonus: experience with consumer-scale mobile/web apps, fitness or retail/membership domains, or building developer tooling around LLMs.
