Software Engineer III

We operate two 24/7 network operations centers and a security operations center, staffed in three shifts.

The role:

This is a new role. The team has doubled in size over the past year. This is a hands-on coding role on software used by a few hundred thousand people. Expect code review, design discussions and a fair amount of debugging. Nobody expects you to know every framework. We want someone who writes clear code, tests it and asks good questions. Remote, with occasional travel to New York City (a few times a year).

Duties:

• Review pull requests from teammates and give clear, specific feedback
• Write unit and integration tests and keep the CI pipeline green
• Migrate older modules out of the monolith where it makes sense
• Break down product requirements into technical tasks and rough estimates
• Improve the reliability of existing code instead of just adding features on top of it
• Work with product managers and designers to scope features and cut what isn't needed
• Mentor junior engineers through pairing and code review
• Debug performance problems using profilers, logs and tracing in Datadog or Grafana

Qualifications:

• 5+ years of professional software development experience
• Ability to write clear technical documentation and explain decisions to non-engineers
• Familiarity with Git, pull request workflows and CI tools like GitHub Actions, Jenkins or CircleCI
• Strong skills in at least one of Python, Java, Go, C# or TypeScript
• Working knowledge of testing practices: unit, integration and contract tests

Preferred qualifications:

• Kubernetes and Docker in production
• Prior work at an early-stage startup
• Background in payments, fintech or another regulated domain

The base pay range for this position is $220,000 - $265,000 a year. Actual pay depends on experience, skills and location.

What you get:

• Health insurance
• 401(k) with a 100% match up to 5%
• Paid parental leave
• Home office stipend
• Employee discount
