Software Engineer-C++

The Software Engineer designs solutions and delivers backend features for our product platform using AI tools throughout the development lifecycle. As part of a small, collaborative pod, this position is accountable for features end-to-end—leveraging AI assistance for specification, implementation, quality validation, deployment, and post- deployment support while ensuring quality outcomes at each stage. This is primarily a backend role focused on high-throughput data ingestion, PDF processing, and working with large datasets. The Software Engineer interfaces with Technical PMs and fellow engineers to deliver scalable, performant services with high velocity. This position also helps evolve our Al-assisted development practices and mentors Associate Engineers on effective AI tool usage.

What You'll Do

• Own specification quality for assigned features - ensure specs are complete, unambiguous, and include acceptance criteria and edge cases
• Collaborate with Technical PM to translate product requirements into detailed technical specifications
• Use Al coding tools (Claude Code) to generate implementations from specifications
• Design and build data ingestion pipelines that reliably process large volumes of structured and unstructured data
• Implement PDF parsing, extraction, generation, and manipulation capabilities for high-volume document workflows
• Design performant, memory-efficient software that scales as data volumes increase, with a DevOps mindset
• Review Al-generated code and peer contributions for correctness, security, performance, and architectural alignment
• Validate Al-generated tests and ensure comprehensive test coverage
• Design and implement REST APIs following established pattern
• Optimize queries, schemas, and storage strategies for large relational datasets
• Mentor Associate Engineers on effective AI tool usage and spec writing techniques
• Share knowledge and experience with the team
• Help evolve Al-assisted development practices including spec templates, prompt patterns, and validation workflows
• Take ownership of domain knowledge within your pod's area
• Support and maintain the backend services within your pod's domain

Qualifications
