We’re hiring a Senior Software Engineer. Not a senior title for someone who executes well, but the engineer other engineers calibrate against. You see the thing that’s broken, decide it’s worth fixing, and start. Nobody assigns that to you
We want to be blunt about the bar, because last time we weren’t. This role is not “ship tickets faster than a mid-level engineer”. It’s technical leadership, coaching, challenging how we work, and being the person the EM and PM think out loud with. If that’s not the job you want, this will be a bad year for both of us
Lead feature work end to end: shape the scope with the PM, make the architectural calls, decide what to cut, and own whether it actually worked once it’s live
Use agents and AI tooling as your default way of building, and pull the rest of the team up to where you are. What you can do with a model this month should be what the team can do with it next month
Coach the engineers around you, including the ones who are not junior. Pairing, review, handing over scope, and direct feedback that changes how someone works
Change how we work without asking permission first. Spot the process that’s costing the team time, build the case, get the buy in, and show the before and after
Be a real partner to the EM and PM. Push back on the roadmap, bring the problem nobody had noticed, and say the uncomfortable thing early rather than politely late
Connect what you ship to what the company is trying to achieve, with a number you chose and then went back and looked at

You’re proactive to the point of being slightly annoying about it. You’d rather fix it and tell people afterwards than raise it and waitYou have judgment about what not to build. The fastest way to ship is to cut the right thing, and you’ll defend that callYou have a deep technical and architecture foundation.

You know exactly which parts you still do yourself and why, and you read what the agent produced closely wherever it touches data, money or authYou’re an extremely strong communicator. You get to the point, you can hold a constructive disagreement without it getting personal, and feedback is something you go looking for rather than something you surviveYou’ve coached peers, not only juniors, and you can point to a specific skill someone has now because of youRunning evals, watching inference cost, or dealing with model failure modes like hallucination in productionExperience at a fast growing SaaS or B2B product companyExperience being the technical counterpart for a PM or EM on a roadmap, not just on a sprint
