Your Mission:

Your mission is to build and improve the applications that power our SaaS platform and fleet management services. You’ll spend your time writing and reviewing code, helping to debug and troubleshoot difficult issues with good tooling but limited support, and anticipating ways we can make our applications work better and seem simple. 

You will report to Rafael Kennedy, the Head of Engineering

Outcomes You'll Deliver:

• Build and maintain features across our stack (Vue, TypeScript, Node, Python, Postgres, Ionic, Dagster). 

• Review code often and meaningfully, raising the bar for quality and comprehensibility. 

• Debug and resolve real-world production issues, ensuring uptime and customer satisfaction. 

• Serve as a mentor and guide to less experienced developers, helping them to grow their skills and confidence. 

• Go deep, taking ownership of modules or business functions from end to end, speaking with product and users to understand what people need to do, and making it work better. 

• Collaborate with product managers and designers to deliver solutions that meet user needs. 

• Continuously improve scalability, performance, and fault-tolerance of our systems. 

Who You Are:

• You have worked on at least one application in production, and you know what it’s like to debug live issues under pressure, roll back safely, and communicate clearly with stakeholders. 

• You can build features end-to-end across the frontend (Vue, TypeScript, Ionic) and backend (Node, Python, Postgres). You don’t need to know every framework we use, but you’re quick to learn and can read code outside your comfort zone. 

• You are comfortable with git. You know how to branch, rebase, and merge without creating chaos, and you understand the importance of pull requests and clear commit history. 

• You have led small projects or feature teams. You know how to break work into tasks, review code constructively, and mentor less experienced engineers without slowing things down. 

• You write code that includes unit tests or integration tests where it matters. You understand trade-offs between shipping fast and shipping safely, and you’ve been on the receiving end of both good and bad test coverage.
