Requirements

What you’ll need

You're an experienced software engineer with 3+ years of experience building scalable applications, platforms, or backend services.
You enjoy solving complex technical problems and turning ambiguous requirements into pragmatic, scalable solutions.
You've built software that solves real business problems across different customers, industries, or use cases.
You're comfortable working across different parts of the technology stack, integrating with APIs, third-party platforms, content systems, and business tools to deliver complete solutions.
You're comfortable working with existing platforms and extending them when needed, whether that's integrating a CMS, connecting third-party services, or building custom solutions on top of existing products.
You're a versatile engineer who enjoys learning new technologies and domains quickly, and you're comfortable picking up unfamiliar systems when the problem calls for it.
You think beyond code, understanding how technical decisions impact users, customers, and the business.
You're comfortable owning projects end-to-end, from architecture and implementation to deployment and continuous improvement.
You know how to leverage AI development tools effectively—breaking down problems, providing clear context, reviewing outputs critically, and guiding AI to produce high-quality solutions rather than expecting it to solve problems on its own.
You enjoy working in collaborative, cross-functional teams and communicating effectively with engineering, product, and design.
You're proactive, curious, and always looking for better ways to build, automate, and simplify complex workflows.
You're passionate about writing clean, maintainable code and building systems that are reliable, scalable, and easy to extend.
You thrive in fast-moving environments where priorities evolve quickly, experimentation is encouraged, and delivering value matters.
