Are you our next Staff  Engineer?

Must haves

  • Experience solving complex technical challenges (we know expertise doesn’t always fit neatly in a timeline—what matters is impact).
  • Deep, production-grade proficiency in Angular and TypeScript, with a strong command of scalable fullstack architecture, component design patterns, and performance optimization.
  • Proven track record in technical leadership, architecture, and strategy.
  • Proven track record for mentorship, clear communication, and long-term thinking.
  • Ability to see both the big picture and the fine detail, knowing when to zoom out to strategy and when to dive deep into technical issues.
  • Pragmatism: you make deliberate decisions, balancing speed and sustainability.
  • Hands-on experience working in AWS environments—comfortable with core services (e.g. Lambda, S3, RDS, Kinesis, Terraform) and cloud-native architectural patterns.
  • Deep understanding of database systems (Postgres, Aurora, ..)
  • Open to engaging with full stack topics—you’re not limited to the front or back end and can contribute meaningfully to full-stack conversations, API design, and data pipeline decisions.

Nice to have

  • Experience working with design systems
  • Deeper engineering experience in other areas like (Node.js, Python, Kotlin, PHP or similar) beyond familiarity—able to own those  components when needed.
