Job Title: Full-Stack Software Engineer Team: Engineering Location: Onsite - Sawtelle (Between Santa Monica & West LA) Employment Type: Full-time, Salary, Exempt Reports To: Engineering Lead

About Plug Plug is the marketplace for used electric vehicles. Consumers get an instant cash offer backed by battery-health data, and dealers across the US bid in real time on that inventory. Former Tesla executives founded Plug in 2023. We’ve facilitated $150M in EV sales and raised a $20M Series A led by Lightspeed Venture Partners.

Why Plug

- You’ll own a piece of the biggest infrastructure opportunity in automotive.

- You’ll work on a platform built exclusively for EVs, with nothing adapted from legacy automotive.

- You’ll be part of an AI-native company. We’re rethinking how work gets done at a fundamental level.

- You’ll work directly with operators who have scaled multi-billion dollar businesses in automotive, EV, and marketplaces.

- You’ll have real ownership, high autonomy, and a direct line to company outcomes.

The Opportunity We are looking for a Full-Stack Software Engineer to join our growing team. You’ll report to our engineering lead and own features and components within our products, working closely with senior software engineers (SSEs) on scope, architecture, and cross-system tradeoffs. We’re building systems like AI-powered pricing intelligence, real-time connectivity to vehicle manufacturer APIs, auction applications, and data pipelines that aggregate EV-specific information from dozens of sources, all to make the wholesale EV market faster, smarter, and more transparent.

As a member of the team, you’ll help build the technical and product foundation for our growing business, with direct mentorship from senior engineers as you grow into more ownership. We’re building a culture that cares about collaboration, encourages intellectual honesty, celebrates technical excellence, and is driven by careful attention to detail and planning for the future. We believe diversity of perspective and experience are key to building great technology and a thriving team. Sounds cool? Let’s work together.

What You’ll Do

- Collaborate with colleagues and contribute your voice in product design sessions, architecture discussions, and code reviews.

- Design, implement, test, debug, and document work on new and existing software features, ensuring they meet business, quality, and operational needs.

- Take ownership of features, with support from SSEs on architecture or cross-system tradeoffs, understanding the ultimate goal and evaluating effort and priority in an agile environment.

- Use agentic coding tools to write clear, efficient, and maintainable code, growing your judgment on flexibility and scalability with guidance from senior engineers.

- Contribute to team productivity and process improvements.

- Use and integrate APIs to connect Plug with third-party platforms.

- Contribute to code review and pairing, and reach out to SSEs to spark good technical discussions, including how you use AI tools.

- Be an integral part of a close team of developers. This is an opportunity to grow quickly with direct mentorship from senior engineers as the team scales.

What You’ll Bring

- 3+ years of hands-on experience developing and delivering production applications.

- Solid proficiency in TypeScript across the full stack: backend, frontend, relational databases, and API and webhook integrations.

- Experience deploying and operating cloud-hosted applications. Comfort with CI/CD pipelines and observability tooling, with interest in infrastructure-as-code (we use Terraform) and feature flag systems.

- Comfortable working in agent-first development workflows, defining clear acceptance criteria and reviewing AI-generated output with a high quality bar.

- A strong engineering quality bar: writing tests, participating in code reviews, and producing code that is readable by both humans and AI agents.

- Track record of owning work end to end: scoping, shipping, and measuring impact, with growing autonomy.

- Startup or fast-paced team experience is a plus.

- Authorized to work in the US for any employer.

- Prior experience in automotive or EV systems is a plus.

Compensation and Benefits Annual salary: $145,000 to $175,000

Salary ranges reflect independent, third-party benchmarking against national compensation data. Where an individual’s actual offer falls within that range depends on a combination of factors, including relevant experience, specialized skills, training and qualifications, current business needs, and prevailing market conditions. Ranges are reviewed periodically and may be adjusted to reflect changing market conditions.

Benefits & Perks

- Health, Vision, and Dental insurance

- 401(k) plan

- Daily lunch stipend

- Equity (based on role and performance)

- 30-day remote work from anywhere policy

- Unlimited PTO

- Fully stocked kitchen

- Dog-friendly office

- Ongoing opportunities for growth and development

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.
