About The Position

We run one of the largest digital marketplaces in residential real estate, where buyers, sellers, servicers, and agents transact on real property with real money at stake. Every listing that moves through our platform touches valuation, bidding, contracts, payments, and a long list of external systems, and the platform keeps evolving to meet the needs of the market. We're hiring Senior Full Stack Software Engineers to help build and evolve that platform. You'll work in React and TypeScript on the front end, with Node, Kotlin, and GraphQL services behind it, running on AWS and Kubernetes. At the senior level, you'll own complex features and technical solutions end to end—from design and architecture through build, test, deployment, and production support. You'll also help raise the engineering bar through thoughtful design decisions, code reviews, mentoring, and technical leadership.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of professional software engineering experience building and shipping production applications
  • Strong experience with React and TypeScript, or comparable modern front-end technologies
  • Experience building backend services with Node.js, Kotlin/Java, or similar technologies
  • Experience designing and working with REST and/or GraphQL APIs
  • Hands-on experience with AWS or a comparable cloud platform

  • Experience designing or contributing to scalable, distributed production systems
  • Strong judgment around performance, scalability, reliability, and security
  • Ability to independently own complex technical work from design through production
  • Experience mentoring engineers, contributing to code/design reviews, and helping improve engineering practices

Responsibilities

  • Design and deliver customer-facing features and the services that power them, balancing speed with scalability, maintainability, and long-term technical health.
  • Help shape technical approaches before development begins—identifying tradeoffs, challenging assumptions, and helping the team make sound architecture and design decisions.
  • Test what you build, with automated coverage across unit, integration, API, and end-to-end testing wired into CI.
  • Debug complex production issues across distributed systems and help identify root causes, not just short-term fixes.
  • Be an active voice in design discussions and code reviews.
  • Work directly with product, UX, data, and other engineers.
  • Build AI-enabled features, incorporating LLMs into customer and internal workflows.
