The posting

Hi there :)

Thanks for checking in to find out about our open position. We´ll provide as much information as possible, but please feel free to reach us if you have further questions. We´ll be happy to see your application, even if there are skills you don't quite master!

ABOUT US

At South Geeks, we engage top-performing Software Engineers, Security Experts, and Data Analysts from Latin America to join our clients' teams worldwide. For over 8 years, we've been helping future-shaping companies scale faster by curating world-class tech talent and building long-lasting, strategic partnerships. We pride ourselves on a people-centered culture that powers innovation, collaboration, and excellence.

ABOUT THE CLIENT

Our client is a fast-growing US-based edtech company whose platform powers school-family communication for over 22 million students across the country. Their engineering team is navigating an exciting architectural transition, while continuing to ship fast. This is a high-visibility role with regular interaction with the CEO and co-founders.

ABOUT THE ROLE

We are looking for a Staff Software Engineer who operates with urgency and a "multiplier" mindset. This is an AI-native role: you should have fundamentally evolved your development workflow using LLMs and AI agents. The ideal candidate uses AI to bypass manual boilerplate, accelerate debugging, and ship clean, simple functionality at a pace traditional methods can't match. You'll be one level below Principal, but the expectations for technical leadership and architectural influence are high.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

- Partner with product, exec leadership, design, sales, and marketing to build the right things, as simply as possible

- Champion AI development practices and mentor the engineering org on using AI to increase sprint velocity and code quality

- Build and run systems that operate robustly at scale with the highest level of security

- Work with leadership to build a unified technical direction and a culture of excellence and speed

- Review PRs and design the future architecture of systems, including the evolution of legacy monolithic architecture toward a modern stack

WHAT YOU NEED TO SUCCEED IN THIS ROLE

- Mastery of large-scale services using Ruby, Python, JavaScript/TypeScript and PHP

- Deep knowledge of distributed systems, relational databases (MySQL/Postgres), and AWS infrastructure (Aurora, RDS, SQS)

- AI-native workflow: you treat AI (Cursor, Claude Code, etc.) as your primary partner in the development lifecycle — using it to bypass boilerplate and focus on deep architectural work

- Ability to represent the engineering team in high-stakes discussions with non-technical stakeholders

- Bachelor's degree or higher in Computer Science or a related field

OUR TEAM

We strive to create an inspiring and growth-oriented environment where everyone feels valued, heard, and empowered. We promote both personal and professional development, with individualized support for your needs and concerns. We aim to build a space where everyone can thrive.

WHAT WE OFFER

- 100% remote work

- Competitive payment in USD

This position is available for candidates based in LATAM.

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.
