About The Position
LineTen is on a mission to crack the code on urban delivery. By leading with our values and putting carrier partners first, we are paving the way for better delivery experiences. LineTen is a new approach to delivery with a free carrier API and an operations management platform for shippers. We're building the first global data-driven last-mile network that has the potential to solve industry-wide problems. We’re hiring a Senior Software Engineer who treats software as a craft, not a checklist. You’ll join a small, high-trust team where ownership is expected, curiosity is encouraged, and outcomes matter more than activity. This is not a ticket-factory role: you’ll be expected to think critically, challenge assumptions, design robust solutions, and take responsibility for their long-term success. You’ll work across backend services, distributed systems and frontend integrations, with a strong focus on correctness, maintainability and architectural clarity. You’ll also use AI-assisted development tools responsibly, understanding that speed only matters when paired with strong design, testing and review discipline.
