About the Role

We’re looking for an experienced Software Engineer to join our growing engineering team. You’ll play a key role in designing and building robust, scalable systems and products that serve thousands (and soon millions) of users. This is a remote-first role, but you must be available during standard business hours (9am–5pm PT).

You’ll be joining a high-caliber, fast-moving team where your ideas, autonomy, and initiative will be valued. Whether you’re optimizing infrastructure, refining user experiences, or shipping new features, your contributions will have immediate, visible impact.

What You’ll Do

  • Architect, develop, and maintain production-level code across our backend and/or frontend systems

  • Collaborate closely with product, design, and other engineering teams to turn ideas into elegant implementations

  • Own features end-to-end, from conception to deployment and iteration

  • Help improve system performance, reliability, and scalability

  • Conduct thoughtful, constructive code reviews and participate in technical discussions

  • Contribute to technical documentation and process improvements

  • Stay current with emerging technologies and recommend relevant tools or frameworks

What We’re Looking For

  • (backend, full-stack, or infrastructure)

  • Strong proficiency in at least one modern language (e.g., Python, Go, JavaScript/TypeScript)

  • Experience with cloud services (AWS, GCP, or Azure), CI/CD pipelines, and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes)

  • Solid understanding of system design, architecture, and performance tradeoffs

  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills — especially in a remote environment

  • Ability to work independently, manage priorities, and deliver high-quality work on time

  • Enthusiasm for learning, shipping, and contributing to a mission-driven team

Bonus Points If You Have

  • Experience with distributed systems or real-time applications

  • Familiarity with React or other modern frontend frameworks

  • Worked in early-stage or high-growth environments

  • Interest in AI, infrastructure, or developer tools

Compensation & Benefits

  • Base salary: $210,000 / year

  • Signing bonus: $15,000 paid upon start

  • Equity: Potential stock option (RSU) grant

  • Remote-first team (U.S. based, PST hours required)

  • Medical, dental, and vision benefits

  • Generous PTO and flexible work hours

  • Learning stipend and career development support

  • Regular offsites and optional in-person collaboration in San Francisco

Job Type: Full-time

Pay: $102,436.86 - $123,364.81 per year

Compensation Package:

  • Bonus opportunities

  • Signing bonus

  • Weekly pay

Schedule:
