Job description

About the role

We are looking for a Staff Software Engineer to lead architecture and write production code for an AI-powered supply chain platform.

The mandatory requirements are 6+ years in software engineering with architecture ownership, 5+ years with C# and ASP.NET Core, Angular, eligibility for US security clearance, ideally working in office in Austin, TX, and strong English communication skills.

What you will do

• Own the architecture of the ABP-based applications: module boundaries, shared libraries, and the conventions other teams build on.
• Lead technical design for major features while writing production full-stack code, including the hardest and most ambiguous problems.
• Set the team’s .NET standards and enforce them through code review, design review, CI and mentoring.
• Build secure-by-design systems, including for AWS GovCloud and government customer environments.
• Own reliability, performance and observability of what they ship, and fix root causes when things fail.
• Plan and lead major .NET and ABP version upgrades while feature work continues.
• Evaluate tools and frameworks and make the call.
• Turn business needs into technical priorities with the Director of Engineering and Product, and document decisions so the team can work without them.

Must haves

• 6+ years in software engineering, including several years owning the architecture of production systems.
• Has led technical delivery across a team without formal authority.
• 5+ years of production C# and ASP.NET Core, with deep knowledge of the request pipeline, dependency injection lifetimes and async behavior.
• Strong EF Core and PostgreSQL: migrations across environments, query plans, indexing, concurrency control.
• Has fixed .NET performance problems in production using tools like dotnet-trace, dotnet-counters or Datadog APM.
• Can ship features end to end in Angular and TypeScript.
• Experience with distributed systems, AWS, containers and CI/CD.
• Secure coding discipline and experience in regulated or high-assurance environments.
• Clear communication with both engineers and executives.
• Ability to obtain and maintain a US government security clearance. Certain programs may require US citizenship.
• Upper-intermediate English level.

Nice to haves

• Production experience with ABP Framework. The posting calls it “strongly preferred,” but deep experience with the same patterns in another .NET framework is accepted.
• Early-stage startup or SaaS experience.
• AWS GovCloud specifically.
• Kafka (Amazon MSK), Kubernetes, Terraform, GitLab, Datadog.
• Works in office in Austin, TX.

Perks

• Growth without limits: build your skills through mentorship, internal TechTalks, challenging projects, and a dedicated annual learning budget
• Competitive compensation: get recognition that reflects your skills and impact, with regular performance and compensation reviews
• Flexibility: work 100% remotely with flexible hours that support focus, autonomy, and a healthy work rhythm
• Meaningful, modern projects: build impactful products using modern technologies alongside global teams and leading brands
• Collaborative culture: join a supportive environment with zero micromanagement where ideas are welcomed and contributions are recognized
• Well-being & support: access local well-being programs and people-focused support tailored to your location
