Job summary

Lindy is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to own high-impact features from concept through production in a fast-moving environment. You will work across our codebase with a small, autonomous team, shipping multiple times a day.

This role emphasizes shipping with speed, autonomous decision-making, and accountability for live production quality. We offer a base salary range of $200k–$280k plus equity, relocation assistance, visa sponsorship, and open to remote candidates.

Responsibilities

• Own and deliver major features end-to-end, from initial prototype to production deployment
• Take full responsibility for the quality and polish of what you ship: performant code, pixel-perfect UI, and thoughtful error handling
• Drive technical decisions with strong judgment, knowing when an RFC adds value versus overhead, and when to bet on speed over completeness
• Diagnose production issues using instrumentation and measurement (not vibes), and leave the codebase better than you found it
• Actively shape what gets built: attend customer calls, question priorities, and ensure the work you're doing delivers real, measurable impact rather than ticking off a spec
• You're a strong communicator who asks sharp questions, shares context publicly, and treats the codebase as a shared space you're proud to maintain

Job description

The Role

As a Senior Software Engineer, you'll own high-impact projects end-to-end from concept through production, in a fast-moving environment where engineers focus on building a great product. You'll work across our codebase alongside a small, highly autonomous team, shipping multiple times a day. This is a role for someone who finds intrinsic motivation in building, moves fast without cutting corners, and measures success by what's live in production.

Key Responsibilities

Own and deliver major features end-to-end, from initial prototype to production deployment

Take full responsibility for the quality and polish of what you ship: performant code, pixel-perfect UI, and thoughtful error handling

Drive technical decisions with strong judgment, knowing when an RFC adds value versus overhead, and when to bet on speed over completeness

Diagnose production issues using instrumentation and measurement (not vibes), and leave the codebase better than you found it

Actively shape what gets built: attend customer calls, question priorities, and ensure the work you're doing delivers real, measurable impact rather than ticking off a spec

Who You Are

You have deep full-stack engineering experience and a track record of shipping customer-facing features in a high-growth environment

You default to action over process - you'd rather ship something imperfect and iterate than spend weeks perfecting an abstraction nobody's tested in the real world

You're genuinely autonomous: you know your top priority, why it matters, what's next, and you don't wait for a meeting or a manager to tell you

You care about craft without being precious - you write clean, reviewable code, sweat the details on UI polish and backend consistency, but never let "perfect" delay "live"

You thrive in a high-trust, low-overhead environment where you're empowered to make bold calls and accountable when those bets don't pay off

You're a strong communicator who asks sharp questions, shares context publicly, and treats the codebase as a shared space you're proud to maintain

Bonus Qualifications

Experience building AI-powered product features

Proven track record in high-growth startup environments

Compensation and Benefits

• Base Salary Range $200-280K + equity

• High autonomy and direct collaboration with leadership
• Open to remote candidates
