We aim to create an environment where people can do their best work, learn from one another, and take ownership of outcomes. As our teams and projects evolve, we welcome individuals who are adaptable, responsible, and motivated to help turn ideas into effective solutions.

About The Role

Crossing Hurdles is seeking a Software Engineer to contribute to the design, development, testing, and maintenance of software products and services. In this role, you will work with colleagues across engineering, product, design, and other functions to understand user needs and deliver dependable solutions. You will participate throughout the development lifecycle, from discussing requirements and evaluating technical approaches to releasing improvements and responding to feedback.

The successful candidate will be comfortable balancing independent work with active collaboration. You will communicate progress, raise questions early, and make thoughtful technical decisions that consider usability, security, performance, and maintainability. This position is suited to a developer who enjoys learning, takes pride in well-crafted work, and can adapt as priorities and requirements change.
