Summary: Seeking an expert developer and technical leader to take end-to-end ownership of systems, drive complex initiatives, and reshape the SDLC to be AI-driven using agent-based workflows. Highlights: 1. Lead complex projects and provide architectural guidance. 2. Champion AI-driven SDLC and agent-based building techniques. 3. Make high-impact technical contributions across the full stack. We are seeking an expert developer, technical leader, and core team member who will take end\-to\-end ownership of whole systems and drive major complex systems initiatives. This role is critical as we actively reshape our Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) to be AI\-driven, utilizing agent\-based workflows. The ideal candidate will work closely with other experienced engineers to contribute to and execute the team’s technical strategy, maintain the long\-term health of our Ruby on Rails monolith and future systems, and demonstrate the flexibility required to excel in a rapidly evolving, small\-team\-minded environment. This role must ensure successful delivery against team and organizational goals. **What will you help deliver:** * Lead the technical execution and successful delivery of large, complex projects, providing architectural guidance and coordinating efforts among team members and relevant stakeholders. * Be accountable for the long\-term architecture, health, and quality of the team’s codebase and systems. * Champion the adoption and execution of an AI\-driven SDLC, specifically utilizing agent\-based building techniques, and demonstrating a high degree of flexibility and willingness to learn. * Lead engineering designs, soliciting feedback and building consensus across the team, while presenting and implementing best practices and patterns. * Take full\-cycle ownership of projects, including coordination, planning, risk management, security and compliance reviews, design, development, testing, rollout, and maintenance; resulting in an improvement of customer, product, and/or business outcomes. * Make high\-quality, impactful technical contributions across the full stack, encompassing light infrastructure work and a full\-stack Ruby on Rails monolith. * Drive collaboration with teammates, partners, and stakeholders to advance team and organizational goals. * Mentor L5 engineers, lifting the skills and expertise of those around you, and cultivating learning and growth within the team. **Requirements** * A senior full\-stack engineer (7\+ years) with significant technical leadership experience. * Deep expertise in Ruby on Rails (6\+ years) and PostgreSQL. * Strong front\-end experience with JavaScript/TypeScript, ideally including Stimulus JS or React, plus comfort with Tailwind CSS. * Experience working on and owning complex systems end to end, including architecture, implementation, and long\-term maintenance. * Solid exposure to Heroku and/or GCP (or similar cloud environments). A big differentiator for this search is that we’re actively reshaping our SDLC to be AI\-driven, with a strong emphasis on agent\-based workflows. We’d love someone who: * Has real experience using AI throughout the SDLC and in product development, not just as a side tool. * Ideally has hands\-on experience building with agents (or is demonstrably eager and able to ramp up quickly here). **Nice\-to\-haves (not required, but definitely pluses):** * Background in FinTech or PropTech. * Prior startup experience. * Experience in SOC2/ISO\-compliant environments. * Exposure to fraud detection or identity verification work. **Benefits** * Work remotely Monday \- Friday, 40 hours a week (no weekends) * Vacation: 10 business days a year * Holidays: 5 National Holidays a year * Company Holidays: 5 Company Holidays a year (Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year's Eve, New Year's Day, Zipdev Day) * Parental Leave * Health Care Reimbursement * Active Lifestyle Reimbursement * Quarterly Home Office Reimbursement * Payroll Deduction Purchase Plans * Longevity Bonus * Continuous Learning Bonus * Access to Training and Professional Development Platforms * Did we mention it's REMOTE?!!
