Staff Full-Stack Software Engineer
Posted Updated
- We’re looking for a Full-stack Engineer who takes ownership of problems end to end and raises the bar for the team around them
- You’ll build the APIs, integrations, and product surfaces that enterprise retailers use to run delivery through Burq, from the first design conversation through production and beyond
- This is a high-impact role for someone who doesn’t wait to be told what to do next
- You’ll spot what’s broken or missing, propose the fix, ship it, and make sure it stays working
- As we bring on large enterprise customers, much of your work will be integration-heavy: connecting Burq to customer systems, hardening our APIs and webhooks, and making sure everything holds up under real operational load
- You’ll also work AI-native, using AI tools daily to move faster, debug smarter, and take on problems most people would escalate and wait on
- Own the design, implementation, and delivery of complex features across our backend services and web applications
- Build and maintain REST APIs and webhooks that enterprise customers integrate against, with a high bar for reliability, security, and clear documentation
- Lead integrations from technical scoping through go-live, working directly with Product, Success, and customer engineering teams
- Use data and customer feedback to improve the Burq Dashboard so operators can run mission-critical deliveries quickly and without friction
- Take ownership of production quality: monitoring, incident response, root-causing issues, and making sure they don’t happen twice
- Raise the team’s standards through code reviews, technical design input, and mentoring, and improve our practices in engineering, security, and design
- Use AI tools day to day for development, testing, and debugging as a core part of how you work
- Strong experience with Node.js and JavaScript/TypeScript on the backend
- Solid experience designing and building REST APIs and microservices
- Experience building web applications with React or a similar modern framework
- A strong ownership mindset: you take problems from ambiguous to done, follow through without being chased, and hold yourself accountable for outcomes, not just tickets
- Comfortable with SQL and NoSQL databases and with building on AWS
- 4+ years of professional software engineering experience, with a track record of shipping and owning production systems
- Clear, direct communicator who can work with technical and non-technical stakeholders, including customers
- AI-native: you actively and fluently use AI tools (Claude, Unblocked, etc.) in your daily work and adopt new tooling quickly
- Experience integrating with third-party systems and APIs, including webhooks, authentication, and handling failures gracefully
- Experience with delivery, logistics, or marketplace platforms
- Experience with workflow orchestration (e.g., Temporal) or event-driven systems (e.g., Kafka)
- Experience with enterprise integrations and security requirements (SSO, IP allowlisting, audit logging)
