We are seeking an exceptional Staff Software Engineer who combines deep technical expertise with the ability to shape architecture, influence cross functional partners, and drive open ended initiatives across teams. You will own the end to end design and delivery of complex systems, identify high leverage problems, and set patterns that other engineers follow.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys solving real business problems with pragmatic, maintainable solutions more than building at massive consumer scale, and who can operate comfortably from hands-on implementation through technical strategy and stakeholder leadership.

●      Lead the architecture, design, and implementation of high impact internal web applications that support deal lifecycle, pricing and quoting, forecasting, and planning workflows.

●      Own complex, cross team technical initiatives from problem framing through design, implementation, rollout, and long term evolution.

●      Identify and drive high leverage technical investments that improve reliability, performance, developer velocity, and user experience across multiple applications and services.

●      Design and evolve microservices, APIs, and data models that integrate with systems such as Salesforce, billing, data platforms, and analytics, ensuring robust contracts and clear boundaries.

●      Partner closely with Product Managers and business stakeholders to translate ambiguous business problems into clear technical strategies, roadmaps, and deliverables over multi quarter horizons.

●      Provide technical leadership and mentoring for senior and mid level engineers, raising the bar on design quality, code quality, observability, and operational excellence across the team.

●      Champion engineering best practices including testing, performance engineering, incident readiness, and secure coding, and ensure they are consistently applied in your area of ownership.

●      Collaborate with peer teams to define cohesive end to end solutions and shared platforms rather than point integrations.

●      Contribute to and help refine the technical strategy, architecture principles, and career standards for the Commit Estimator and broader Application & AI Engineering domains.

●      Contribute to modernize the existing application and platform for scalability, availability, speed of delivering software and enabling AI capabilities for End Users .

• Experience with relational databases (PostgreSQL) and distributed systems technologies like Kafka or messaging/event streaming.
• Proven ability to design and deliver scalable internal/B2B applications, breaking down complex problems into clear solutions across multi-quarter initiatives.
• Cloud-native experience (AWS, containers, CI/CD, observability) with a track record of improving developer productivity, operational excellence, and mentoring teams.
