The posting

At YouVersion, we build technology that helps people around the world connect with God every day. The Senior Staff Software Engineer is primarily responsible for leading large-scale technical solutions across multiple engineering disciplines. This role extends influence across engineering discipline boundaries to shape technical strategy, creates alignment between different engineering disciplines, and influences senior leadership decisions. The Senior Staff Software Engineer drives technical excellence throughout the organization while serving as a key technical authority and mentor.

YouVersion was created by the local church in 2007 and remains a ministry of Life.Church today. At Life.Church, our mission is simple: to lead people to become fully devoted followers of Christ. We believe technology is a powerful tool for spiritual growth, and we're committed to using it to help people engage with the Bible like never before.

At our core, we know that seeking God daily has the power to transform lives. That's why everything we build is designed to encourage, challenge, and inspire people to take their next step in faith wherever they are.

  • Lead large-scale technical initiatives that span multiple teams and engineering disciplines.
  • Shape technical strategy and create alignment across teams and platforms.
  • Serve as a trusted technical authority within your domain.
  • Design scalable, long-term architecture that supports organizational goals.
  • Influence technical decisions at both the engineering and leadership level.
  • Set standards for quality, resilience, and security across systems.
  • Mentor engineers across levels and disciplines, helping grow both technical skill and leadership capability.
  • Partner with engineering and product leadership to align technical direction with broader priorities.

What It Takes to Thrive

  • Deep technical expertise with a track record of leading complex, large-scale systems.
  • Ability to influence and align multiple teams without direct authority.
  • Strong system design skills with a focus on long-term scalability and sustainability.
  • Strategic thinking—able to balance immediate needs with long-term direction.
  • Clear, effective communication across engineers, partners, and leadership.
  • Proven ability to operate at both technical depth and organizational breadth.
  • Alignment with Life.Church’s mission and a desire to build things that help people grow in their faith.

Technical Experience

  • Backend systems (distributed systems, APIs, cloud architecture).
  • Mobile platforms (Flutter/Dart, iOS, Android).
  • Web platforms (React, Node.js, scalable web architecture).
  • System design across complex, multi-platform environments.

What You Bring

  • High School Diploma or GED.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science preferred.
  • 9+ years of related work experience.
  • Previous experience as a Staff Engineer or equivalent level.
  • Track record of leading large, cross-team technical initiatives.
  • Ability to influence technical direction beyond a single team or domain.

Benefits We Offer

  • Paid parental leave, including maternity, paternity, and adoption leave.
  • Generous employer-paid leave for the use of vacation, sick time, and other qualifying reasons.
  • Innovative and comprehensive Medical, Dental, and Vision insurance that provides team members with useful resources and savings to navigate their holistic health.

  • Generous 401(k) retirement plan allowing a team member to have up to 12.5% (including employee contribution, employer match, and employer discretionary contribution) contributed into their account in their first year. It doesn’t stop there—the more years on staff, the greater the investment!
  • $160 annually in development dollars for team members to invest in their professional growth.
  • Casual dress and work environment.
  • And much more!

Our Beliefs, Culture, and Commitment to Diversity

At Life.Church, every staff member, and intern is a minister and is expected to engage in the church's ministry fully. We consider ministry readiness and an individual’s capacity to represent Life.Church’s beliefs as a minister during the selection process for all staff and intern positions. An essential function within every position held by a staff member or intern at Life.Church is to uphold and represent the beliefs of Life.Church. Learn more about what we believe at Life.Church.

While we unite around our mission, we know unity doesn’t mean uniformity. Our calling is too great, and our mission is too important not to be intentional about strengthening our team through diversity. We know that diverse perspectives in race, ethnicity, background, age, and gender are essential to reaching the world for Christ.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
