Your mission
As our new Software Engineer, your mission is to design, build and operate reliable services that enable property information to move seamlessly between systems.
You'll work across backend services, APIs, event-driven integrations and cloud infrastructure, while contributing to front-end solutions where required. You'll collaborate closely with Product, Design and Engineering to deliver high-quality solutions that improve the experience for our guests, homeowners and internal teams.
What you'll be doing
- Build and maintain APIs, backend services and data transformation pipelines that power the Property platform.
- Contribute to front-end applications where required, working across the full stack.
- Collaborate with engineers, product managers and designers to deliver high-quality, customer-focused solutions.
- Work with modern technologies including TypeScript, AWS and Docker.
- Contribute to engineering practices such as CI/CD, testing, observability and continuous delivery.
- Monitor and improve the health, reliability and performance of production systems using tools such as New Relic.
- Participate in pair/mob programming, code reviews and knowledge sharing.
- Take ownership of the systems you build, helping to shape technical solutions and improve the platform over time.
- Make effective use of AI-assisted development tools (such as GitHub Copilot, Codex or Claude) to improve productivity, code quality and learning while applying sound engineering judgement.
