Their award-winning technology provides tools for safer, responsible digital engagement with almost half a billion young people worldwide every month. At the intersection of technology, law, media, and policy, working with our client gives individuals a chance to shape the future of the internet.

What the Software Engineer Will Do

You will develop one of their existing products as part of a highly skilled and mission-driven team. The team is committed to maintaining a high-quality bar, evolving the system while keeping it simple and focusing on maximizing the impact on the end product.

The Software Engineer will work closely with the Tech Lead and other engineers to define the appropriate technical approach, success metrics, and delivery timelines. They will contribute to the product roadmap and help the team and Product Manager make informed decisions to break down complex tech deliverables into simple and understandable user stories.

Quality is key. The Software Engineer will ensure all product components are built to an appropriate level of quality for the stage (alpha/beta/production), deliver products using the appropriate level of testing and monitoring, fail fast, and learn and iterate frequently. They will champion continuous improvement and always aim to improve the product the team owns, measuring impact with the appropriate tech, product, or delivery metrics.

In This Role, the Software Engineer Will

• Join a team committed to high-speed iterations, high code quality, and continuous improvement via agile processes.
• Work across the full application stack, focusing on areas where they can drive the highest impact.
• Design and implement features and services for the product the team owns, keeping design choices well documented and explained.
• Drive quality and reliability from the start, lowering the system’s complexity.
• Master the domains they will work on, breaking complex goals into simple and easy-to-maintain deliverables.
• Ensure long-term quality, scalability, and maintainability of our client’s systems.
• Champion the DevOps culture, treat operations with a mission-critical mindset and support the live system in production, including participation in the out-of-hours on-call rota.

The technology stack is entirely cloud native and includes AWS, Terraform, Kubernetes, Kafka, Node.js, and TypeScript.

What We Are Looking For

Our client believes a good engineer can pick up any new technology in a reasonable amount of time and provides training and help during onboarding to become fully proficient with their stack. They expect candidates to deeply understand the full-stack software development life cycle, DevOps methodologies, testing, and tooling.

Our client is interested in hearing about candidates’ previous experiences building large and complex high-throughputweb systems, including stories about microservices, event-driven architectures, databases, or any tech challenges they have enjoyed. They want to know how candidates improved the quality, security, scalability, and observability of the products they worked on and how they would repeat that success at the company. DevOps practices are integral to their culture, and they want to hear candidates’ preferences and adaptations of these practices.
