About the role
Location: Austin, TX
Employment Type: 4 days In-Office
Department: Engineering
Salary: Top of market salary + equity
We're hiring a Senior Software Engineer on the growth team with experience building web applications and analyzing data to improve our customer’s experiences. This is a full-time, 4 day in-office position based in Austin, TX.
As a Sr Software Engineer, Growth you will:
- Work across marketing, product, and engineering to build out end to end solutions for the customer's journey from initial contact through their first policies.
- Help more people self-serve when getting their first policy with Steadily.
- Implement and follow up on robust analytics to understand pain points our customers are facing.
What You'll Bring:
- Experienced: This isn't your first rodeo. There's no specific minimum number of years requirement, but we expect you to be able to dive into a complex codebase without too much spin-up. Past experience as a team lead is definitely a plus.
- Builder: You like the product-side of engineering and have thoughtful opinions on what the user experience should be. You're not the type of engineer who wants a fully-fleshed out spec thrown over the wall for you to code.
- Pragmatic: We prioritize impact and delivery. You balance speed and quality, making thoughtful trade-offs to solve problems effectively. You leverage off-the-shelf solutions so we don’t re-invent the wheel but understand when a custom solution is appropriate. You'll be deploying code to production within hours of starting and working with us to iteratively build solutions.
- Specific languages: We don't really care if you've worked in our stack before as long as you're happy to learn it. If you're sharp enough to be on this team, you're sharp enough to learn any language or framework quickly.
Our Stack and Tools:
- Python 3 / Kotlin
- Typescript
- React (Next.js)
- Django / FastAPI
- Postgres
- Kafka (we build on an event driven architecture)
- AWS (EKS)
- Github Actions with a full CI/CD Pipeline
Compensation and Benefits:
- Compensation: Top of market salary + equity
- Time Off: 3 weeks PTO + 6 federal holidays
- Insurance: Medical, dental, vision, life, disability, HSA, FSA
- Retirement: 401(k)
- Perks: Free snacks, team lunches, collaborative office culture
Location:
- Austin, TX
