About the role

  • Technical Strategy & Ownership: You will focus on the core components of the Steer CRM, specifically optimizing how we ingest and process data to revolutionize our automation tools. We don't expect you to do this alone; we encourage the heavy use of AI-assisted coding to accelerate development and bridge any gaps across our stack.
  • Adaptive Development: Be ready to pivot at a moment's notice. Based on evolving business needs, you may need to shift focus to work on new or existing integrations to ensure our ecosystem remains seamless.
  • Customer-Centric Development: Partner closely with Product to understand user pain points, ensuring every line of code adds tangible value to the auto repair shops we serve.
  • System Design & Scalability: Architect reusable full stack components and services that ensure our platform remains performant as we scale.
  • Code Excellence: Champion best practices in security, test automation, and maintainability. Conduct deep-dive code reviews that elevate the entire engineering organization.
  • Modern DevOps: Influence our CI/CD pipelines, containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), and IaC practices to ensure a seamless developer experience and operational reliability.

Requirements

  • 7+ years of professional experience building complex, web-based SaaS products.
  • AI & LLM Integration: Hands-on experience working with LLMs and prompt engineering. You are more interested in the logic and outcomes of AI integration than staying tethered to a specific legacy framework.
  • Database Expertise: Proficiency with both relational (PostgreSQL, MySQL) and NoSQL (MongoDB, Redis) databases, including schema design and query optimization.
  • The 'Owner' Mindset: A track record of taking full accountability for projects and a passion for solving "impossible" problems in fast-paced environments.
  • Exceptional Communication: The ability to translate complex technical concepts into product outcomes and collaborate effectively with leadership. Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
  • Nice to Have: Familiarity with our current stack: .NET, Node.js (TypeScript), and React; Experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation); Previous experience as a founding engineer or in an early-stage startup environment.
Benefits
  • Equity Options: Own a piece of the company’s success.
  • 100% Remote: Work from anywhere in the US.
  • 100% Employer-Paid Medical Insurance.
  • Flexible PTO: With a 15-day minimum.
  • FSA and HSA options.
  • Generous Parental Leave.
  • 401k & Learning Stipend.
  • WFH Equipment: Everything you need for a world-class home office.
  • Innovative Culture: A seat at the table to influence the latest AI technology in a collaborative environment.
