We're hiring a hands-on Lead Engineer to design, build, and ship product features across our Go microservices and modern React front-end.
You'll work directly with our engineering leadership, Head of Product, and designer, taking end-to-end ownership of complex problems while pushing the boundaries of how engineers leverage AI both in product and in their daily workflow.
This is a building-first role. We expect you to be delivering significant cross-stack features independently within your first two months.
What You'll Be Doing:
Full-Stack Feature Development (Primary Focus)
- Design and ship new features across our Go microservices and React (Remix) front-end
- Own complex problems end-to-end — from database design to user experience
- Collaborate with engineering leadership, PM, and designer to deliver high-impact product improvements
- Build internal tooling to accelerate the entire team
Infrastructure & Developer Experience (Secondary)
- Maintain and improve our Kubernetes (GKE) infrastructure
- Contribute to CI/CD, observability, and developer workflows
- Help optimize our AI-assisted development tooling and practices
Requirements
Must-Haves:
- Active AI tool usage — you're already coding with AI assistants daily (Cursor, Claude Code, etc.)
- 7+ years senior engineering experience with strong full-stack product development
- Formal or informal experience providing technical leadership
- Systems thinking and ability to navigate complex technical systems
- Proven track record of shipping products
- Go familiarity or strong experience with Java, Scala, C#, Rust, Python or TypeScript
- Modern React (Remix/react-router or similar frameworks)
- Some DevOps experience with production systems and deployment
- Strong written and verbal communication skills for remote, async-friendly setup
- Self-driven and able to work autonomously
Bonus:
- Significant DevOps/Cloud experience (Google Cloud, Kubernetes, microservices)
- GraphQL API design in microservice environments
- Event-driven architectures (Kafka)
- Distributed database experience (Cassandra, ScyllaDB)
- TailwindCSS utility patterns
