Own the full stack : React, Django, PostgreSQL. You set the standard, you ship it, you scale it.
Design and scale : Backend APIs, data models, and infra that won't break when usage 100x's overnight. Make the hard architecture calls.
Frontend craft : Architecture, performance, UX. Our UI can't feel like enterprise software. Make it feel like smooth - and enforce that bar.
Ship with conviction : Partner with product, CV, and design to launch cohesive features users can't live without. Drive technical roadmap.
Run production : AWS, GCP, Heroku. Deploy it, monitor it, debug it, make it bulletproof. Set up the systems so others don't have to firefight.
Move fast & level up the team : Prototype in days, iterate with real customers. Mentor, review code, and raise the engineering bar across the org.
Desired Attributes
Founder-level drive : You thrive with zero structure. Ambiguity is your default state. You create clarity and ship.
Product engineer : You care why we're building, not just how . You have taste. You argue for the user and kill scope creep.
World-class fundamentals : Web architecture, system design, performance. You've scaled things to millions of users and know where it breaks.
Full-stack leader : Frontend to backend to infra. No "that's not my job." You own the outcome and unblock others.
Learning machine : New framework on Monday, shipping it Friday. You're resourceful and relentless on hard problems.
Startup work ethic : This isn't a cushy big-tech role. We're at war with legacy software in a $13T industry. You want that.
Organized under fire : 10 parallel workstreams, production fire, and a new feature launch. You prioritize, delegate, and execute.
This is full-time & in-person in SF. Learning rate and dedication beat pedigree. If you can prove you'll ship what our customers are screaming for - at the speed and quality the market demands - and elevate everyone around you, we want you.
