Job description

SOFTWARE ENGINEER

Location: San Francisco, CA, New York City, NY, or Birmingham, AL (remote available) Type: Full time Dept: Product & Engineering Reports to: CTO Compensation: $150K - $180K

We believe the future of technology is a conversation, not a click. Linq builds the infrastructure that lets businesses talk to customers through AI — in the channels where conversations are already happening: iMessage, RCS, SMS, and voice.

We're a small team, we ship code every single day, and we're just getting started.

The role:

You'll build product on Linq's messaging platform — the APIs, the interfaces, the infrastructure underneath. We work across the stack (React/Next.js, Node, TypeScript, Go) and ship daily. You'll own features end to end, and you'll be close enough to customers and leadership to understand why you're building what you're building.

Apply if you:

  • Have 2+ years of experience building software professionally
  • Can work across the stack — you don't have to be an expert everywhere, but you're not afraid of any layer
  • Ship clean, functional code and care about getting better at it
  • Like working fast without sacrificing quality
  • Are comfortable with ambiguity — you don't need a detailed spec to get started

Nice to haves:

  • Experience with our stack: React/Next.js, Node, TypeScript, Go
  • Familiarity with APIs — building them, consuming them, or both
  • Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, Heroku, Docker)
  • Startup experience — you've worked where priorities shift weekly and you figure things out as you go

Why Linq:

  • Health/Dental/Vision insurance
  • Flexible PTO
  • 401(k)
  • Wellness stipend, book stipend, professional development opportunities
  • Direct access to engineering leadership — we're a small team solving real problems with no layers of bureaucracy between you and the work

Why work at Linq

  • Culture: Described as a “band of misfit tinkerers” who value speed, quality, and clear communication. Emphasizes autonomy, ownership, and continuous learning.
  • Remote/Hybrid Policy: Hiring primarily in Birmingham, AL; New York, NY; and San Francisco, CA. Likely hybrid or in-office based on location-specific roles.
  • Benefits: Competitive salaries + equity, medical/dental/vision insurance, 401(k) plan, flexible vacation, parental leave, books and exercise stipend, free snacks/coffee in office, regular team outings.
  • Engineering Culture: Builds infrastructure that powers messaging at scale; focuses on API design, platform reliability, and developer experience. Open to applicants who don’t fit a specific title – “we index less on the title and more on the human.”
