Job description

ControlUp is a leader in Digital Employee Experience (DEX), evolving IT operations with agentic AI to deliver Autonomous Endpoint Management (AEM) and a digital workspace that runs itself.

Our platform transforms millions of real-time signals into intelligent action, bridging the gap between deep visibility and automated remediation. We turn \"IT headaches\" and employee frustration into self-healing operations, allowing organizations to move beyond reactive troubleshooting toward a future where technology works seamlessly in the background.

We’re here to ensure the workday runs without disruptions.

No tool sprawl, no wasted time, and no friction. Just technology that works for people, not against them, so they can stay focused on what they do best.

One platform. One powerful shift in how work flows.

About the Role:

We're looking for a Senior Full Stack Engineer who thinks AI-first, builds with modern tooling, and brings strong React/TypeScript front-end instincts alongside solid back-end capability.

What You’ll Own:

• Design and build full stack features end-to-end, from React/TypeScript front ends to APIs and back-end services.


• Lead with an AI-first mindset — leveraging AI tooling (e.g. Claude, Cursor, LLM integrations) throughout the development lifecycle to improve speed, quality, and innovation.


• Write clean, efficient, reusable code with a strong focus on performance and user experience.


• Identify and drive improvements to development workflow, tooling, and processes — with an eye for where AI can accelerate delivery and quality.

Collaboration & Communication

• Work closely with Engineering, Product, and Design to deliver high-quality products across the full stack.


• Contribute to architectural decisions and help define standards for AI-assisted development across the team.

What You’ll Bring:

• 8+ years in software development, with meaningful full stack experience.


• Strong front-end skills in React, TypeScript, and modern JavaScript.


• Back-end proficiency — Node.js or similar; REST/GraphQL API design.


• Demonstrable experience using AI tools in your day-to-day development workflow.


• Solid CS fundamentals: data structures, design patterns, system design.


• Proven ability to perform and deliver in a fast-paced, high-growth environment — comfortable managing shifting priorities, tight timelines, and evolving requirements without compromising on quality.

Nice to Have:

• Experience with LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.) or building AI-powered features.


• Familiarity with Micro Frontend architecture and module federation.


• Exposure to Agile/Scrum and Azure DevOps.


• Experience with Jest or similar testing frameworks.

Why You’ll Love It Here:

• Global, Not Isolated: You’ll work with a diverse team spanning the US, EMEA, and Israel. We’re known for our vibrant social culture, and once a year, the entire global company comes together for a major offsite to reconnect in person.


• Meaningful Impact: Make a real impact from day one, working with cutting-edge technology in a fast-paced, global environment.


• Collaborative & Growth-Driven: Join a collaborative, empowering culture where learning and professional growth are encouraged.


• True Flexibility: We offer a hybrid model. We care about the output of your expertise, not the hours you spend in a specific chair.
