What You’ll Do

• Own and scale a high‑throughput search platform. Drive the architecture and performance of a real estate search system handling 1.5B+ monthly requests and hundreds of millions of listings, optimizing for latency, relevance, and reliability across Kafka and Elasticsearch.
• Deliver a world‑class home search experience. Build and evolve the core home discovery experience across web and mobile—improving engagement, lead conversion, and agent workflows while maintaining fast, responsive interactions at scale.
• Build and evolve a highly reliable notifications platform. Own and extend a centralized system delivering tens of millions of emails per month and SMS traffic, ensuring high deliverability, reliability, and extensibility for product teams.
• Push forward AI‑powered discovery experiences. Collaborate with teams to integrate LLMs and intelligent ranking into search and user workflows—improving how buyers and agents discover, filter, and engage with listings.

What We’re Looking For

Attributes

• You already build with AI daily. You use Claude Code as a core part of your workflow, not as a novelty.
• You have strong opinions, loosely held, about how AI changes software architecture, team structure, and engineering culture.
• You think in systems. You connect technical decisions to customer outcomes and long‑term business value.
• You communicate clearly and directly. You can explain complex tradeoffs to product, design, and executive stakeholders.
• You’re energized by ambiguity and speed. You thrive in a fast‑growing company where the roadmap evolves and ownership is real.
• You like to have fun at work. We take our craft seriously, but we don’t take ourselves too seriously. We celebrate wins, crack jokes, and genuinely enjoy building together.

Skills And Experience

• 8+ years of professional software engineering experience, with meaningful time in senior or staff‑level roles.
• Deep expertise in TypeScript, Node.js, and React.
• Experience designing and operating scalable microservice architectures in cloud‑native environments (AWS preferred).
• Strong understanding of GraphQL, event‑driven systems (Kafka, SQS), and distributed databases (PostgreSQL, DynamoDB, Elasticsearch).
• Proven track record leading high‑impact initiatives from concept through production in a SaaS environment.
• Expert‑level grasp of software design principles and experience with multi‑tenant platform architectures.

Tech Stack

• Frontend: React, Tailwind, Apollo
• Backend: Node/TypeScript microservices
• Data: Postgres, Redis, Elasticsearch
• Infrastructure: AWS, Kubernetes, Lambda, Temporal
• Messaging: Kafka, SQS
