About The Position
We are hiring a Staff Software Engineer to provide technical leadership across teams without stepping out of the code. You will drive architecture for our most important systems, de-risk hard problems, and multiply the output of the engineers around you. This role offers the opportunity to set the technical direction for systems that the whole product depends on, solve the hardest cross-cutting problems in an AI-native platform, and influence how the entire engineering org builds, without managing people.
Requirements
- 7+ years of software engineering, with a record of leading complex, cross-team systems.
- Deep system design expertise and strong hands-on coding ability.
- Demonstrated technical influence beyond your own direct work.
- Sound judgment about trade-offs, scope, and what to build vs. defer.
Nice To Haves
- Experience scaling AI/ML systems or large data platforms.
- Early-stage startup or 0→1 product experience.
Responsibilities
- Lead architecture for major systems spanning AI, data, backend, and frontend.
- Identify and remove the biggest technical risks and bottlenecks.
- Set engineering standards (design, testing, reliability, performance) and make them stick.
- Mentor senior engineers and raise the technical bar across teams.
Benefits
- A high-impact role with ownership from day one.
- Competitive compensation and meaningful equity.
- Direct collaboration with founders and real users.
- Remote-first flexibility.
- The opportunity to help build an AI-native product from the ground up.
