We thrive on providing exceptional customer service and we look for team members with an entrepreneurial spirit and a passion to build successful partnerships with our clients. Because at the end of the day our goal is to help our partners businesses run better.

Are you passionate about designing and developing scalable systems and mentoring engineering teams to success? We’re looking for Lead and Staff Software Engineers to set the technical direction for a critical product area, influence architectural decisions, and lead through hands-on expertise. In this role, you’ll have the opportunity to shape the long-term vision of our platforms while empowering engineers to grow and deliver their best work.

A Day in the Life:
Every day brings a new opportunity to contribute and/or lead with influence and drive impact across teams. You’ll be solving complex architectural challenges, mentoring engineers, and collaborating with senior leaders to guide the direction of our systems. Whether it’s through hands-on coding, aligning cross-functional teams, or planning technical roadmaps, your leadership will help ensure we build sustainable, high-performing systems.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Set or contribute towards architectural direction and evolve systems to support long-term scalability and performance.

• Identify and implement tools, frameworks, and practices that improve team productivity.
