Senior Software Engineer

About the company

Our client is a fast-growing technology company.

The role

Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Take full ownership of a set of product features, from discovery with internal and external users through prototyping, release and iteration. Build user-facing applications and the intelligent capabilities behind them, and stay accountable for how your work performs in production.

What you'll do

- Build internal tools that let staff serve many more customers without a drop in service quality.

- Develop customer-facing portals where clients view their information and engage on their own terms.

- Design and ship AI-driven features, including the tools agents use and how they are embedded in the product.

- Work directly with internal users, observing real workflows to decide what to build and how to improve it.

- Build systems that handle uncertainty transparently, with attention to compliance, auditability and data freshness.

- Create data ingestion and migration pipelines that turn messy, inconsistent legacy data into clean, reliable inputs.

- Keep production reliable, fixing issues promptly and holding a high bar for quality.

Requirements

What we're looking for

- Experience shipping software at a top startup or well-known technology company, rather than an agency, consultancy or legacy enterprise.

- Proven record of leading a feature area independently, running your own discovery with users and delivering without a product manager defining the specifications.

- Strong ability to understand users and distinguish what they ask for from what they actually need.

- Ability to move quickly without sacrificing reliability.

- Collaborative, direct and low-ego working style, with energy for a fully in-person team environment.

Bonus points

- Strength in frontend or backend engineering.

- Staff-level engineering experience.

- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science.

- Experience building generative or real-time dynamic user interfaces.

- Proficiency with retrieval systems or agent frameworks.
