As a Staff Engineer, you’ll lead initiatives that span front-end and back-end services — delivering performant, secure, and scalable features.

• Lead technical design for key initiatives, driving quality, scalability, and maintainability.
• Build reusable and performant UI components for a best-in-class no-code builder experience.
• Own services throughout their lifecycle — including implementation, testing, deployment, observability, and incident response.
• Work closely with Product, Design, and Architecture to define the “what” and “how” of features, ensuring solutions are both user-friendly and technically sound.
• Partner with infrastructure and platform teams to optimize system performance and reliability.
• Mentor and support engineers across the team, fostering a culture of quality, ownership, and continuous improvement.
• Contribute to cross-functional planning, architectural reviews, and team-wide engineering practices.
  
  

Experience:

• 8+ years of experience building modern web applications in a full-stack environment.
• Deep expertise in TypeScript, ReactJS, and Node.js (Express or similar frameworks).
• Experience designing APIs and building robust services at scale in a distributed, cloud-based architecture.
• Experience with PostgreSQL, Docker, and Kubernetes.
• Experience delivering elegant, enterprise-grade user experiences by partnering with Product and Design teams in a fast-paced, agile environment.
• Ability to collaborate closely with Architects to make smart technical tradeoffs, and drive alignment across teams.
• Passion for craftsmanship and high engineering standards (testing, monitoring, documentation, scalability).
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to lead technical discussions and build consensus across functions.
• A growth mindset and interest in mentoring others and upleveling the team.
  
  

Nice to Haves:

• Exposure to low-code/no-code tools, workflow engines, or visual development platforms.
