• Familiarity working with Node.js, TypeScript, GraphQL, React, and Postgres.
• You're good at understanding and breaking down complex problems.
• You are resourceful and comfortable with ambiguity, and can make good decisions and forward progress even when requirements are unclear.
• You take pride in building scalable, resilient software that delights users and advances the company’s business objectives.

Nice To Haves

• You've worked in a fast-paced startup environment in the past and are excited to do it again.
• You have experience managing infrastructure to support rapid growth and product usage at scale.
• You have experience mentoring fellow team members and are considered a leader among your peers.
• You're approachable and enjoy helping others on the team continually grow.
• You like to express yourself creatively through hobbies or interests outside of coding, and feel inspired to think outside the box in and away from your job.

Responsibilities

• Employ software engineering best practices to ensure our codebase remains well-tested and bug-free.
• As an early engineer, you’ll have a prominent voice in engineering decisions and technical direction across the stack.
• Guide the future of our tech stack. To support greater usage and a larger customer base, our infrastructure needs to evolve, as does the way we store, query, and process data. You’ll not only be a key decision-maker, but will anticipate technical constraints and proactively find and engineer solutions.
• Independently drive decisions on software architecture, data modeling, and infrastructure that scale with our customer base and perform reliably for our users.
• Work closely with the engineering and product team to plan, architect, and implement features. Your work will lean heavily toward the backend and API, but you’ll collaborate closely with frontend engineers and always think holistically about the product.
• Build and maintain robust integrations with third-party platforms—some modern and well-documented, others more outdated and opaque. You’ll grow to be a leader on the team’s integrations ecosystem and an expert on our external-facing systems and solutions.
• Be an active part of shaping Siteline's culture, helping to recruit and mentor new team members and cultivating a positive, inclusive, and collaborative work environment.

Benefits

• We're big believers in trust and in a healthy work/life balance
