Experience Level The Staff Software Craftsperson is a technical leadership role equivalent to an SDE-4/SDE-5 . We are looking for seasoned engineers with 7.5+ years of hands-on experience who have transitioned from building great software to shaping the engineering culture and technical strategy of an entire organization.

As a Staff-level crafter, your focus shifts from solving well-defined problems to identifying and solving the most complex, ambiguous technical challenges that impact our clients and our internal engineering standards.

What You’ll Do As a Software Craftsperson

- Technical Vision & Architecture: Lead the architectural direction for complex, large-scale systems. You will balance the immediate needs of the business with long-term system health, ensuring our solutions remain simple, scalable, and resilient.
- Engineering Excellence at Scale: Champion disciplined engineering practices (TDD, Pair Programming, CI/CD) across multiple teams. You don’t just follow the bar you raise it by introducing better patterns and tooling.
- AI Strategy & Mentorship: Drive our AI-native development model. You will experiment with and define how we use AI to accelerate the SDLC, ensuring the team uses these tools to enhance—rather than replace—deep technical judgment.
- Cross-Team Leadership: Act as a force multiplier. You will mentor senior engineers, conduct high-impact code reviews, and foster a culture of continuous learning and craftsmanship.
- Strategic Client Partnership:



Work as a technical consultant for high-stakes client engagements, translating vague business goals into robust technical roadmaps and navigating complex stakeholder environments.
- Systemic Problem Solving: Beyond resolving production issues, you identify "class-level" problems in our infrastructure or codebase and implement systemic changes to eliminate them permanently.

Requirements What We''re looking for

- 7.5+ years of experience building and maintaining high-scale production systems.
- Mastery of Fundamentals: Expert-level understanding of object-oriented design, functional programming, and system architecture (Microservices, Event-driven, etc.).
- Polyglot Mindset: High proficiency in Ruby on Rails and React/Angular, with the proven ability to architect solutions across multiple tech stacks (Python, Go, etc.) as needed.
- Influence without Authority: Demonstrated ability to lead through persuasion and technical excellence rather than just hierarchy.
- Advanced AI Collaboration: Deep experience integrating AI into a professional workflow to explore architecture, automate toil, and peer-review logic.
- Proven Ownership: A track record of taking a project from a nebulous idea to a successful, maintained production system.
- Communication: Exceptional ability to explain complex technical trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders and executive leadership.
- Clear thinking and strong problem-solving ability, with the capacity to break down complex problems into simple, well-structured solutions.
- A strong sense of ownership — you take responsibility for outcomes, care deeply about quality,



and are not comfortable shipping work that does not meet your standards
