About the role

  • Join WRITER as a Staff Software Engineer to build services for enterprise administration in AI-powered work environments. Collaborate cross-functionally to ensure secure and scalable solutions in a hybrid role.

Responsibilities

  • Design and build robust, scalable services for enterprise administration, billing, identity management, authentication, and authorization
  • Make meaningful system design decisions, own the architecture of core platform components from initial design through production
  • Build and optimise high-performance APIs and distributed services that operate reliably at enterprise scale
  • Collaborate with product managers and cross-functional engineering teams to translate complex business and compliance requirements into well-designed technical solutions
  • Partner with DevOps teams on continuous deployment, logging, and monitoring; ensuring top-tier performance and reliability
  • Drive improvements in observability, reliability, deployment workflows, and operational excellence
  • Navigate ambiguity, take loosely defined problem spaces and turn them into well-structured, maintainable implementations
  • Raise the bar on code quality, testing, documentation, and long-term maintainability

Requirements

  • 7+ years of hands-on software engineering experience building production systems end-to-end with extremely strong proficiency with Python and functional programming

  • Experience building microservices and RESTful APIs in cloud environments (AWS, GCP, or Azure), including containerization with Docker and Kubernetes
  • Solid grasp of database systems (e.g., PostgreSQL), event-driven architectures, and distributed systems fundamentals (availability, fault tolerance, operational safety)
  • Comfort operating in ambiguity, you drive clarity rather than waiting for complete specifications, and you drive clarity for yourself and the team
  • Experience coding with AI tools to move faster while maintaining high standards for correctness, security, and maintainability
  • A "Connect" mindset, thriving in collaborative settings where you actively engage with cross-functional teams and mentor junior engineers to achieve shared goals
  • A "Challenge" spirit, demonstrating exceptional problem-solving skills to tackle complex technical hurdles and proactively suggest innovative improvements to our systems and processes
  • An “Own” mindset, you take full accountability for outcomes from design through production, and you raise the bar on quality and maintainability
  • Nice to have: Experience in identity and access management, authentication (SSO, SAML, OIDC), and authorization models (RBAC, ABAC, policy engines)
  • Nice to have: Experience building billing, subscription, or metering systems at scale
  • Nice to have: Background in multi-tenant enterprise SaaS platforms
