Staff Software Engineer — Fully Remote We’re partnering with a highly profitable, product-led software company building with an intentional “small team, high impact” philosophy. This is a rare opportunity to join a business that has deliberately chosen to stay lean, profitable, and engineering-driven — without the chaos of hypergrowth for the sake of it. The company operates with an exceptionally high-agency culture where senior engineers are trusted to own product decisions, shape technical direction, and move quickly alongside an elite founding and leadership team. Why this role stands out • Fully remote with a genuinely flexible working culture, • Profitable business with strong product-market fit, • Equity package with accelerated vesting — designed so the upside is meaningful and actually realisable, • Small engineering team (the company plans to stay around 5–6 engineers), • Founders from top-tier backgrounds including ex-Meta, • Hands-on CTO and an exceptionally strong senior engineering team, • Modern, pragmatic engineering culture embracing AI-assisted development tools, • Product-focused environment where engineers have direct influence on roadmap and customer outcomes What they’re looking for They’re looking for a genuinely senior Full Stack Software Engineer who thrives in small, high-performing teams and enjoys operating with autonomy. You’ll likely have: • 5+ years of commercial software engineering experience, • Strong product mindset and customer empathy, • Experience building across the full stack in either Python or TypeScript environments, • Excellent communication skills and the ability to collaborate directly with founders, customers, and senior engineers, • A bias toward ownership, execution, and simplicity, • Comfort operating in a fast-moving, low-process environment, • Enthusiasm for modern developer tooling, including AI coding assistants, • Unfortunately this role cannot offer visa sponsorship The environment This is not a company optimising for headcount, process layers, or politics. The team values exceptional engineers who want to do their best work in a focused environment with other highly capable people. You’ll have significant technical ownership, direct exposure to business decisions, and the chance to help shape a company that intends to remain sustainable, profitable, and engineering-first long term. If you’re excited by the idea of building ambitious products with a tiny, elite team — while still having meaningful equity upside — this is the kind of opportunity that rarely comes to market.
