Senior Software Engineer

We provide audit, tax and advisory services to private companies, public entities and nonprofits. Our industry groups cover construction, healthcare, manufacturing, real estate and financial institutions.

Role overview

The previous person in this role moved to another team. We need another Senior Software Engineer who likes owning a feature from the design doc all the way to the on-call rotation. This role is fully remote within the US. You can set your own hours around a daily morning check-in. Communication happens mostly in Slack and short video calls.

Day to day

• Improve the reliability of existing code instead of just adding features on top of it
• Maintain REST and gRPC APIs used by internal teams and outside partners
• Write unit and integration tests and keep the CI pipeline green
• Ship small, frequent changes behind feature flags
• Work with product managers and designers to scope features and cut what isn't needed
• Take part in an on-call rotation (roughly one week in six) and help resolve production incidents
• Migrate older modules out of the monolith where it makes sense
• Mentor junior engineers through pairing and code review

Required qualifications

• Working knowledge of testing practices: unit, integration and contract tests
• Willing to join the on-call rotation once ramped up
• Experience with relational databases such as PostgreSQL or MySQL, including writing efficient SQL
• Strong skills in at least one of Python, Java, Go, C# or TypeScript
• BS in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
• Ability to write clear technical documentation and explain decisions to non-engineers
• Comfortable working in Linux and on the command line

Preferred qualifications

• Kubernetes and Docker in production
• Prior work at an early-stage startup

Salary range: $183,000 - $220,000 a year

What we offer

• Health insurance
• 401(k) with company match
• Three weeks of PTO to start
• Short- and long-term disability
