What We're Looking For

Attributes

• You lead from the front. You're still close to the code and technically respected, and you treat management as a craft — growing engineers, giving clear feedback, and building a team that ships.
• You already build with AI daily. You use AI as a core part of your workflow, not as a novelty — and you expect your team to as well.
• You have strong opinions, loosely held, about how AI changes software architecture, team structure, and engineering culture.
• You think in systems. You connect technical decisions to customer outcomes and business value.
• You communicate clearly and directly. You can explain complex tradeoffs to product, design, and executive stakeholders.
• You're energized by ambiguity and speed. You thrive in a fast-growing company where the roadmap evolves and ownership is real.
• You like to have fun at work. We take our craft seriously, but we don't take ourselves too seriously. We celebrate wins, crack jokes, and genuinely enjoy building together.

Skills and Experience

• 8+ years of professional software engineering experience with meaningful senior or staff-level time, plus 2+ years managing engineering teams.
• Search experience — you've worked on search, relevance, ranking, or retrieval systems. It doesn't have to be OpenSearch or Elasticsearch specifically, but you understand how search works and how to make it better.
• Deep expertise in TypeScript, Node.js, and React, with the full-stack fluency to reason about the whole request path from UI to data.
• Experience designing and operating scalable microservice architectures in cloud-native environments (AWS preferred).
• Strong understanding of GraphQL, event-driven systems (Kafka), and databases (PostgreSQL, OpenSearch).
• A proven track record operating high-traffic, low-latency production systems at scale — SLOs, incident response, and capacity planning are second nature.
• Experience leading high-impact initiatives from concept through production in a SaaS environment.

Tech Stack

• Frontend: React, Tailwind, Apollo
• Backend: Node.js / TypeScript microservices
• Data: PostgreSQL, OpenSearch
• Infrastructure: AWS, Kubernetes, Lambda
• Messaging: Kafka, Redis
