Job Level

About the role

  • Own features end-to-end — from scoping the problem with users, to writing frontend and backend code, to deploying and monitoring in production
  • Build fast, polished interfaces in Vue, Next.js, or React
  • Design and build backend services in Go
  • Own and operate Kubernetes infrastructure — deployments, scaling, monitoring, troubleshooting
  • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure-as-code
  • Administer and harden Linux systems; own networking end-to-end (DNS, firewalls, load balancers, ingress, VPNs)
  • Set up monitoring, alerting, and runbooks. Run incident response and post-mortems
  • Dogfood our product relentlessly. Use it daily, break it on purpose, file detailed bugs, push the team to ship better software
  • Automate everything. If you're doing it manually more than once, script it
  • Operate cloud infrastructure (GCP, AWS, or Azure)
  • Use AI dev tools (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, etc.) to move faster and ship more

Requirements

  • 0–2 years of experience — new grads welcome, what matters is what you can do
  • Strong in at least one of: frontend (JavaScript/TypeScript, Vue/React/Next.js), backend (Go, service design, APIs), or infrastructure (Linux, Kubernetes, networking)
  • Comfortable working across the stack — you don't need to be an expert in everything, but you're not afraid to jump in
  • Testing mindset — you enjoy breaking things and making sure code works
  • Product instincts — you think about the user first and notice when something feels off
  • High agency — when something is broken, you fix it; when something is missing, you build it
  • Ship fast, iterate, communicate clearly
  • Comfortable with ambiguity. Requirements change. Priorities shift. You thrive in that
Benefits
  • Competitive salary and equity based on experience
  • Hybrid — 3 days in office, 2 days WFH
