Senior Software Engineer – Platform & Architecture
Build the brains behind a global network-management platform
Why this role is different
If you love turning fuzzy, half-formed ideas into elegant, working software—and you’re energized by problems nobody has solved yet—you’ll feel right at home here. We move quickly, value bold thinking over red tape, and give software engineers the runway to own architecture decisions end-to-end. Your code will help hundreds of client teams keep mission-critical networks humming around the world.
What you’ll do:
Your impact & how you’ll make it happen
Shape the architecture of a multi-tenant, global SaaS platform that ingests billions of network events.
- Lead design spikes and proof-of-concepts when requirements are not always complete.
- Break down complex business problems into incremental, testable slices.
- Drive process and set software engineering standards that raise the team’s bar.
Ship high-quality features, fast.
- Write, review, and refactor Python/Django and React code that is clean, observable, and cloud-native.
- Automate tests and CI/CD pipelines (Docker + GitHub Actions) to get ideas from branch to production in minutes.
Tackle the gnarliest bugs.
- Dive into syslogs, RADIUS traces, and AWS CloudWatch logs to hunt down root causes.
- Use data—not hunches—to guide permanent fixes.
Integrate anything with an IP address.
- Design scalable APIs and event streams that let switches, access points, firewalls, and third-party apps plug into our platform.
- Harden integrations for performance and security at scale.
Mentor & collaborate.
- Pair-program, model best practices in code reviews, and help product managers translate “what” into “how.”
The stack you’ll play with
- Languages / Frameworks: Python, Django, React, Node.js, REST, GraphQL
- Cloud & DevOps: AWS (EB, PostgreSQL/Timescale, Lambda, Kinesis), Docker, GitHub, Puppet
- Networking: SNMP, RADIUS, CoA, DHCP, secure tunnels, ethernet switches, WiFi access points & firewall APIs
What we’re looking for
- 5+ years building and operating production SaaS application on a professional software engineering team
- Fluency in Python, Django and at least one modern front-end or services framework (React, Node, FastAPI, etc.)
- Proven success shipping features when the problem and the solution were both unclear at the start
- Solid command of Git, Linux, database design, automated testing, and agile delivery
- Ability to communicate benefits and trade-offs with both engineers and non-technical stakeholders
- Depth in network protocols or managing wired/wireless infrastructure
- Experience scaling time-series or event-driven data pipelines
- Prior ownership of cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred)
Why you’ll love working here
- Autonomy from day one – you’ll have true ownership of architecture decisions.
- Big technical canvas – global scale, high-throughput data, hardcore networking challenges.
- Human-centered culture – flexible work hours with zero-ego peers who value mentorship.
- Supportive leadership that wants you to have the tools and resources you need to get it done.
- We embrace change and don't accept broken processes - we fix them.
- Real impact – your ideas won’t sit in the backlog; they’ll power the networks our customers rely on every day.
