About The Position

We are seeking a Staff Software Engineer to join our Operational Excellence team, where you'll own the technical strategy and roadmap for Pura's end-to-end supply chain platform, spanning order management, inventory allocation, warehouse integration, and shipment tracking. This is a domain leadership role: you set the technical direction, define the architecture, and are ultimately accountable for the health and evolution of the systems within your domain. You'll operate at the intersection of deep technical ownership and cross-functional influence, partnering closely with business stakeholders and executive leadership to translate business needs into sound technical decisions and technical tradeoffs into clear recommendations that non-engineers can act on. You'll work closely with a small, high-impact engineering team, raising the technical bar through design leadership, hands-on code, and mentorship. This role is for someone who sees the technical and the business not as two separate worlds, but as the same problem viewed from different angles.

• Expert-level proficiency in Golang and/or other modern backend languages (Node, Python, etc.)

• Strong command of service-oriented architecture, API strategy, and event-driven architectures at scale
• Expert-level AWS (or comparable cloud) knowledge, including containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), CI/CD, and infrastructure as code
• Deep expertise in relational database design and optimization (PostgreSQL preferred), caching (Redis, etc.), and data modeling for scale
• Proven track record establishing observability, monitoring, and operational excellence standards across engineering teams
• Exceptional communication skills; able to translate complex technical tradeoffs into clear recommendations for business and executive audiences
• Experience mentoring senior engineers and operating as a technical force multiplier
