About the Role
We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our growing team and play a key role in building reliable, performant, and scalable systems across our product. You’ll work across the stack—from TypeScript APIs to modern React frontends—helping define architecture, improve developer experience, and drive code quality across the team.
In this role, you’ll be expected to work closely with product, design, and fellow engineers to deliver user-facing features, refine our internal APIs, and evolve our platform architecture as we scale. You will see projects through from conception to production and everything in between.
