Job Description

Staff / Principal Software Engineer — Full Stack, Developer Platform

Remote — United States | $260,000–$320,000 Base | Full-Time

We're partnering with a well-funded, high-growth cloud infrastructure company building a developer-first platform used by millions of engineers worldwide.

The company is expanding its engineering organization and hiring four Staff/Principal-level Software Engineers to build products that help growing teams and enterprise customers deploy, manage, and scale their applications.

This is a hands-on, product-focused engineering role for someone who enjoys owning complex full-stack initiatives, working closely with product and design, and influencing technical direction across teams.

What You'll Do

• Lead the design and delivery of full-stack products and features, from architecture through production.
• Build developer-facing experiences that make sophisticated infrastructure accessible and intuitive.
• Develop scalable APIs, backend services, database integrations, and modern web interfaces.
• Partner with product managers, designers, and engineers to define requirements and deliver high-impact solutions.
• Drive cross-team technical initiatives and influence architectural decisions.
• Improve platform reliability, maintainability, and developer experience as the business scales.
• Contribute to technical planning, mentorship, engineering standards, and on-call operations.

What We're Looking For

• 11+ years of professional software engineering experience, including Staff, Principal, or equivalent technical leadership responsibilities.
• Strong, hands-on full-stack engineering experience across frontend frameworks, backend APIs, relational databases, and multiple programming languages.
• Experience building products at high-growth startups, ideally with product-led growth and enterprise customers.
• Demonstrated ownership of complex technical projects spanning multiple teams.
• Experience collaborating directly with product and design stakeholders.
• Experience with or familiarity with several technologies in the following ecosystem: Go, TypeScript, React, PostgreSQL, Kubernetes, Terraform, and Temporal.
• Familiarity with modern build, deployment, and software delivery practices.
• Ability to balance technical quality, product priorities, and execution speed.

Experience developing cloud platforms, developer tools, SaaS infrastructure, or enterprise software is particularly valuable.

This is a product engineering position, not a pure infrastructure, DevOps, or SRE role.

Compensation & Benefits

• Base salary: $260,000–$320,000
• Fully remote throughout the United States
• Employer-paid medical coverage
• Four weeks of paid time off
• 14 weeks of fully paid parental leave
• Monthly lifestyle stipend and home office stipend
• Periodic team gatherings, approximately 1–2 onsite weeks every six months

Candidates must have existing US work authorization or be eligible for a qualifying visa transfer. New visa sponsorship is not available.

Why Consider This Opportunity?

You'll join a growing, venture-backed engineering organization with substantial funding, an established developer customer base, and ambitious plans to expand its enterprise platform.

Unlike narrowly scoped engineering positions, this opportunity offers significant ownership over both the technical architecture and the end-user experience, with compensation reflecting the seniority and impact expected.
