Lead Software Engineer

About us

Our bench is in the back of a strip-mall storefront, where we image laptops and swap failed drives.

The role

The Lead Software Engineer will build and maintain services, APIs and internal tools, working closely with product and design. This role is fully remote within Nepal. Most of our work is async, and meetings are kept short. A stable internet connection and a backup power option are required.

In your first few months you will

• Take part in an on-call rotation (roughly one week in six) and help resolve production incidents.
• Write unit and integration tests and keep the CI pipeline green.
• Maintain REST and gRPC APIs used by internal teams and outside partners.
• Design, build and maintain services in Python, Go or Java that handle real customer traffic.
• Migrate older modules out of the monolith where it makes sense.
• Review pull requests from teammates and give clear, specific feedback.
• Mentor junior engineers through pairing and code review.

What we're looking for

• 8-10 years of professional software development experience.
• Working knowledge of testing practices: unit, integration and contract tests.
• Familiarity with Git, pull request workflows and CI tools like GitHub Actions, Jenkins or CircleCI.
• BS in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• Strong skills in at least one of Python, Java, Go, C# or TypeScript.

Why work with us

• Medical insurance.
• Paid leave.
• Internet allowance.

Start: Within 30 days.
