About the Role

We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer who thrives in both scrappy problem-solving and polished execution - someone who is just as comfortable hacking together a proof-of-concept as they are writing clean, maintainable code and presenting it to a customer. 

In this role, you will take end-to-end ownership of your work, moving fluidly between discovery, design, development and deployment. Some days you will be deep in technical investigation mode - reverse-engineering systems, navigating messy APIs, and figuring things out with limited documentation. Other days, you’ll be the architect of scalable solutions, shaping production-ready code and delivering value to customers with confidence and clarity.

You will work across a range of projects, collaborating with a supportive, remote-first team that values autonomy, creativity and impact. This is a role for someone who gets energy from variety and enjoys switching gears—solving messy problems one day and polishing solutions the next

What You’ll Be Doing

• Java Development:
  Contribute to and improve our Java codebase with a focus on writing well-organized and maintainable code
  
  
• Scripting & Automation:
  Use scripting languages (e.g., Python, Bash, Powershell, etc.) and automation technologies (GitHub actions, Automatic deployment tools) to automate processes and extend system functionality
  
  
• System Integration:
  Design and implement integrations with 3rd party databases, APIs, and data storage systems
  
  
• Customer Infrastructure:
  Engage directly with remote customer environments to understand architecture and design implementation plans that optimize for scale and reliability
  
  
• Customer Collaboration:<
