Qualifications

3+ years of experience building and shipping product-focused web applications on a software development team.
Hands-on experience using AI-assisted or agentic development tools, and thoughtful judgment about what they produce.
A generalist skill set spanning backend and frontend using modern web technologies; Rally is primarily built using TypeScript, React/Remix, and NodeJS.
Sound technical judgment when reviewing others' code, including a feel for risk and for when a change warrants deeper scrutiny.
A commitment to pragmatic, maintainable solutions with a focus on testing and documentation.
Hands-on experience with automated testing and CI/CD pipelines; experience with Playwright or a similar end-to-end testing framework is a strong plus.
Experience using and deploying applications on the cloud; Rally is built on Google Cloud Platform.

Responsibilities

Identify friction and bottlenecks in how we build and ship, and design pragmatic improvements to our development process, tooling, and infrastructure.
Bring strong technical judgment to code review across the team's pull requests — much of it AI-generated — helping ensure changes are safe, sound, and ready to merge.
Strengthen our release process by turning release-readiness into explicit, repeatable checks, and by building tooling that makes shipping to production safer and less dependent on any single person.
Design and build automated testing — including end-to-end coverage in our staging environment using Playwright — so the team can move quickly with confidence rather than leaning on manual checks.
Build synthetic monitoring and smoke tests that verify expected behavior in production after each release.
Contribute to backend development and ongoing maintenance work as capacity allows.
Favor simple, well-documented, maintainable solutions that a small team can confidently own after the engagement ends.
Communicate clearly and collaborate with both technical and non-technical stakeholders in a remote environment.
