Senior Full-Stack Engineer (NY)
We’re looking for a thoughtful Senior Full-Stack Engineer (6+ years experience) who thrives owning problems end-to-end. You’ll design and build AI-powered features that reach millions of job seekers, make pragmatic architectural decisions, and balance speed with long-term quality. This is not a backlog-ticket role; we want someone who takes a concept all the way to production, not just executes what’s handed to them.
This is a NY based role with regular in-office presence required (hybrid schedule).
What You’ll Do
- Design and build AI-powered products and features that deliver meaningful user impact
- Build and maintain scalable backend services and user-facing applications
- Collaborate closely with product and design team, and other engineering teams to deliver high-impact features
- Make structural technical decisions and clearly articulate trade-offs when solving complex problems
- Take ownership of a product area, service, or technical domain and drive it forward
- Continuously improve system performance, reliability, and developer experience
What We’re Looking For
- 6+ years of professional software engineering experience
- Strong foundation in programming and software design principles
- Proven experience building well-scoped, performant modern web applications
- Production experience with React or Next.js and at least one of the following languages: Go, Python, or JavaScript
- Comfort navigating the full stack and pulling in what’s needed to ship
- Strong ownership mindset and ability to work effectively within cross-functional teams
Nice to Have
- Experience working with AI tools, prompt engineering, or integrating AI into development workflows
- Search infrastructure experience (Elasticsearch or similar)
- Familiarity with message brokers (e.g., Kafka, RabbitMQ, AWS SQS)
- Database optimization experience (e.g., MariaDB or similar relational databases)
- Experience with modern frontend tooling (e.g., Vite)
- Background in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience
What Success Looks Like
- Consistently delivers product features with high quality and strong attention to detail
- Uses AI-assisted development fluently, producing clean and maintainable code at higher velocity
- Builds strong partnerships with engineers, product and design, contributing to team and organizational growth
- Proactively surfaces problems and drives them to resolution
- Makes the codebase, the system, and the team around you measurably better over time
