About the role

  • Partner heavily with Product Managers and Design to not just build, but help shape and define world-class product experiences based on technical feasibility and user impact.
  • Own the full feature cycle, from joining customer calls to identify friction points, to architecting the solution, implementation, testing, and verifying success in production.
  • Engineer the bridge between intent and execution: You will build the product that translates a Designer’s vision or a PM’s requirement into real production code within a customer’s codebase. You are solving the hard problem of making an inherently rigid, developer-centric world (Git, CI/CD, code structures) accessible to non-technical users.
  • Act as a technical bridge between the code and the customer. You will translate complex customer requirements into scalable technical solutions and shorten the feedback loop between user pain and feature release.
  • Lead technical decision-making for your features, prioritizing speed-to-value without sacrificing code quality or long-term maintainability.
  • Navigate the complexity of 'Code-as-Data': You will connect the dots between our platform and the customer's diverse technical environments. You aren't just shipping features; you are building a system that must intelligently navigate, understand, and modify external codebases reliably.

Requirements

  • 6+ years of experience in full-stack web development with a proven track record of shipping complex products to production.
  • Deep expertise in React (or other modern frontend development framework) and Node.js/TypeScript, with an eye for performance and architectural patterns.
  • Strong Product Intuition: You care about why you are building something as much as how. You are comfortable making product micro-decisions and dealing with ambiguity.
  • A Customer-First Mindset: You are comfortable speaking directly with customers, asking the right questions to uncover the root problem, and owning the resolution.
  • Cloud Fluency: Experience architecting scalable systems on AWS or Google Cloud.
  • High Agency: You don't wait for a ticket to be perfectly defined; you seek out the problem, define the solution, and deliver value iteratively.
Benefits
  • Unlimited time off. 3 weeks is the minimum that we will ask you to take each year
  • Mental health days. We encourage you to take at least one per quarter to recharge
  • Paid parental leave. 12 weeks of full pay for the birth and care of a newborn child, or for the placement of a child for adoption or foster care
  • $500 home office improvement budget. Help get what you need to be comfortable working in a digital-first environment
  • $500 annual learning & development budget. Feel supported and empowered to continue developing your skills
  • Co-working space reimbursement. Work from any WeWork at anytime with an All Access pass, or reimburse up to $300/month at another local co-working space
  • Health Insurance. 100% employer-paid premiums for medical, dental, and vision insurance for employees, and 50% covered for eligible dependents
  • Additional Insurance. Depending on location, Builder covers your life insurance, short- and long-term disability, and you'll have access to supplemental benefits like accident and critical illness insurance
  • 401k (for US based team members). Contribute to your financial future through our Guideline plan
  • Real equity. We have a four year vesting schedule with a one year cliff. We also have a ten (10!!) year exercise window 🤯 (yeah, we're pretty stoked about it!)
