Our team reflects the diversity and creativity of the people we serve. Join our mission to level the playing field for small business owners through good design

About the Opportunity

You will join a high-energy, global team where Product Mindset is just as important as code quality.

We are already a one of the leaders in the email space—serving 600k+ verified users. Now, we are evolving into a full-funnel marketing platform. We need Fullstack Engineers who can bridge the gap between backend logic and frontend experience to build complete features from scratch.

If you love the challenge of taking a vague idea, architecting the database, building the API, and crafting the UI—all while solving complex SaaS scaling problems—this is your seat.

What You Will Do (The Mission)

You will not just "write code." You will own features end-to-end. Your core challenges will include:

End-to-End Feature Delivery: You will design and build robust features across the entire stack (Database $->$ API $->$ UI). You act as the technical owner, ensuring the backend scales and the frontend feels magical.
Solve Complex SaaS Problems: You will tackle hard distributed system challenges like Fair Usage policies (rate limiting), Noisy Neighbor isolation, and handling high-concurrency data streams.
Architecture & Refactoring: We are a fast-paced startup. You will help us balance speed with stability—knowing when to ship an MVP and when to refactor code for long-term maintainability.
Performance Optimization: You will hunt down bottlenecks anywhere in the stack—whether it’s a slow SQL query, an inefficient API response, or a React re-render issue.
Mentorship: You will share your knowledge with the team, helping Junior/Mid engineers grow through code reviews and pair programming.

What You Need to Be Successful

We hire for mindset first, technology second.

1. Engineering Skills

Deep Experience (5+ Years): You have a strong Computer Science foundation. You have shipped and maintained complex web applications in production.
Fullstack Fluency: You are comfortable jumping between the backend (API design, Database modeling) and the frontend (React, State Management) without slowing down.
SaaS Experience: You understand the unique challenges of multi-tenant SaaS applications (e.g., data isolation, usage limits, feature flagging).
Database Knowledge: You know how to design schemas that scale. You understand indexing, transactions, and how to avoid downtime during migrations.

2. Product Mindset

Idea to Reality: You don't just follow specs. You can take a business goal ("We need to reduce churn") and translate it into a technical solution.
Adaptability: You thrive in a startup environment where requirements change. You view refactoring as a normal part of the process, not a failure.

3. Collaboration

Ownership: You own your work and learn from mistakes. You don't wait for detailed instructions; you talk to the PM, understand the requirement, and deliver the solution.
Communication: You have good written and spoken English. You can explain technical trade-offs to Product Managers and Designers clearly.
Teamwork: You value team success. You believe in code reviews and sharing knowledge. You help the team get better every day.
