Senior Software Engineer

Top 3 Reasons To Join Us The Job You are the senior engineer who owns architecture, the agent harness, and the merge button for the whole platform. You will not hand-write every feature — you direct AI coding agents to build, then review for architectural soundness and own everything that reaches production. This is a high-leverage, high-ownership role: think “agent wrangler”, not “ticket cruncher”. What you’ll do Own system architecture and high-judgment technical decisions across a Next.js + Firebase + OpenSearch stack. Build and harden the agent harness — the workflows, prompts/skills, guardrails, CI and safety rails that let AI agents ship code safely. Own the final code review and the merge button: humans own deployed code. Review for interfaces and architecture, not style. Own production reliability, security gates (customer PII, deposit/money flows), data migrations, and release approval. Set the verification bar together with the test engineers; enable shift-left testing so agents self-correct against tests before code reaches the pipeline. Your Skills and Experience Must-have (real production experience) 5+ years building AND operating production web systems that real users depend on — you have owned services in production, not just written code. Deep TypeScript and modern React / Next.js (App Router) experience. Strong backend: Node.js, serverless / cloud functions, a real production database (Firestore / NoSQL or SQL), and pragmatic API design. Cloud + DevOps: CI/CD, deployments, observability and incident response (we run Firebase App Hosting + Cloud Functions). You have made architecture decisions and lived with their consequences; you reason clearly about data models, security and scale. Hands-on, enthusiastic user of AI coding agents (Claude Code / Codex / Cursor-style) — you can direct, review and correct AI-generated code at a senior level. A security mindset appropriate for a system handling customer PII and deposits. Nice-to-have Firebase / GCP and OpenSearch / Elasticsearch (search relevance) in production. AWS database experience (RDS / Aurora / DynamoDB) and other production data stores. LLM application engineering: RAG, evaluations, agent orchestration. Prior lead / staff role, or having solo-owned the technology of a real product. Our stack & context Next.js 16 / React / TypeScript · Firebase (Firestore, Cloud Functions, App Hosting, Storage, Auth) · OpenSearch · AI agents (Claude Code) + Sofia LLM assistant · ticket-driven delivery.
