Senior Software Engineer

This is Lattice Engineering

We’re a small and impactful team of engineers continuously working to better both our product and our craft. We use a modern, cutting-edge tech stack and love experimenting with new technologies. We strive for maintainable, robust, and performant code. We’re highly collaborative and continuously iterative and work closely with designers and product managers. We prioritize not only great technical architecture but also an amazing product experience.

The Performance Platform team is responsible for designing, building, and maintaining the systems underlying Lattice’s suite of performance products (Reviews, Manager Tools, and Grow). We will be working on many of the most exciting challenges at Lattice, including scaling and creating a cohesive platform where product teams are able to easily collaborate. 

What You Will Do

The Performance Platform team is responsible for designing, building, and maintaining the systems underlying Lattice’s suite of performance products (Reviews, Manager Tools, and Grow). We will be working on many of the most exciting challenges at Lattice, including scaling and creating a cohesive platform where product teams are able to easily collaborate. 

• You’ll build software to help companies build cultures in which their employees thrive.
• You’ll work with other engineers to build and own products across a modern tech stack. Our current stack includes React, Relay Modern, GraphQL, Node, and PostgreSQL. We rely on AWS to host our infrastructure.
• You’ll work closely with other product teams to understand and solve overarching pain points.
• You’ll independently lead the execution of complex projects, including those that require cross-functional collaboration with product managers and designers.
• You’ll provide substantial mentorship to less experienced colleagues, helping to refine their technical craft and expand their knowledge.
• You’ll make contributions to our engineering practices, identifying and evangelizing improvements to improve our team output.

What You Will Bring to the Table

• You have 5+ years of professional experience writing and maintaining production-level applications.
• You’ve worked with a modern programming language like JavaScript, Ruby, Python, etc.

• You know the ins-and-outs of maintaining and scaling an application actively serving customers in production.
• You seek out the root cause when debugging software defects, and champion improvements that prevent future issues. You are familiar with operations tasks such as monitoring application performance over time or troubleshooting issues with production applications.

You’re a great communicator and collaborator.

• You take care to write code that your colleagues will also own, understand, and maintain.
• You’re clear and concise in explaining your thought process and in enumerating the tradeoffs made in your work.
• You work well with designers and product managers to come up with optimal solutions. 

You enjoy taking an active role in the development process.
