Description

  • Lead architecture, technical design, and implementation of new school safety products from concept through production.
  • Drive technical strategy and engineering excellence across multiple teams and systems.
  • Design scalable, secure, and resilient distributed systems that operate reliably in real-world environments.
  • Build and maintain integrations with third-party platforms, identity providers, communication systems, hardware devices, and external data sources.
  • Collaborate with Product, Design, and Engineering leaders to translate customer needs into technical solutions.
  • Mentor engineers, raise engineering standards, and help shape the technical culture of a growing organization.
  • Make technology decisions that balance customer impact, operational complexity, speed of execution, and long-term maintainability.

Requirements

  • 8+ years of experience building and operating production software systems.
  • Proven track record of owning and delivering complex backend or full-stack systems end-to-end.
  • Strong experience designing distributed systems, APIs, event-driven architectures, and cloud-native applications.
  • Experience building integration-heavy platforms involving third-party APIs, webhooks, data synchronization, and identity systems (OAuth, SAML, SSO).
  • Strong software engineering fundamentals including system design, data modeling, observability, reliability, performance, and security.
  • Experience handling sensitive data and building systems where privacy, security, and compliance are architectural requirements.
  • Demonstrated success delivering 0-to-1 products or major platform initiatives in ambiguous environments.
  • Proven ability to influence technical direction, mentor engineers, and lead through collaboration rather than authority.
  • Experience in real-time, high-reliability, or operationally critical systems (bonus).
  • Experience with IoT platforms, connected devices, device fleet management, or hardware integrations (bonus).
  • Experience with physical security, operational technology, critical infrastructure, or similar resilience-critical environments (bonus).

Benefits

  • Competitive pay with a base salary range of $190,000-$220,000 per year.
  • Complete health insurance, 401(k) matching, and an employee equity plan.
  • Flexible time off, paid holidays, paid parental leave, and a paid year-end holiday break.

  • Fertility and adoption reimbursement.
  • A varied and challenging role in an innovative, global company.
