Staff Software Engineer

As a Staff Software Engineer, you'll be one of the most senior individual contributors on the team, setting architecture and technical direction across the customer-facing websites, portals, and internal platforms that power multiple products and markets.

What You Will Do

You'll lead from the front end out: owning how our web platform is built, how it performs, and how it scales. All while working across the stack with engineers, designers, marketers, and product managers to ship personalized, performant, and impactful experiences.

Why It Might Be a Fit

You'll be working in a hybrid role requiring 4-days onsite with the flexibility of working from home one day per week, and you'll have access to a robust Employee Assistance Program, tenure-based sabbatical eligibility, and a range of benefits including 25% company match on your 401(k) contributions and market-leading medical, dental and vision coverage.

Requirements

• 8–12+ years of software engineering experience, with deep expertise in front-end and web platform engineering
• A track record of setting architecture across multiple applications or teams, not just within one codebase
• Expert-level React, TypeScript, and Next.js, including server-side rendering and caching strategies
• Strong system design skills: APIs, data flow, distributed services, and failure modes across the full stack
• Full-stack range: backend services in Node.js (or .NET), GraphQL API design, and integrating with enterprise systems such as Salesforce
• Hands-on experience with AWS (Lambda, ECS), modern hosting and edge platforms like Vercel or Cloudflare, and infrastructure-as-code (Terraform or CDK)
• A solid grounding in application security, testing strategy, and web performance at scale
• Hands-on experience using AI coding tools in your daily work, and a clear view on where they help and where they don't
• Excellent communication with technical and non-technical audiences—you can write the proposal, present it to leadership, and bring stakeholders along
• Experience influencing without authority, partnering with leaders and subject matter experts outside engineering to reach decisions

Benefits

• Four weeks paid vacation your first year, ten paid holidays, and two floating holidays
• Exciting business travel opportunities
• 25% company match on your 401(k) contributions

• Amazing offices designed to match the caliber of the people who work there!
