The posting

Software Engineer (Generalist)

Location: San Francisco, CA (Hybrid / Onsite options)

Type: Full-time

Level: Mid to Senior

About the Role

We are looking for a Software Engineer (Generalist) as a generalist, you won't be boxed into a single layer of the stack—you'll own features end-to-end, tackle high-impact bottlenecks across the codebase, and help shape technical architecture as we scale.

If you love shipping product fast, diving into unfamiliar technologies to solve tough problems, and balancing speed with high-quality engineering, you’ll fit right in.

Requirements

What You’ll Do

  • End-to-End Ownership: Design, build, test, and deploy features across the entire stack—from frontend UI/UX to backend services and database schemas.
  • Problem Solve Across the Stack: Jump in wherever the product needs you most, whether that’s building an API, optimizing SQL queries, or setting up a deployment pipeline.
  • Product Collaboration: Work closely with product designers, founders, and engineers to turn ambiguous ideas into production-ready software.
  • Architect for Scale: Help maintain clean abstractions, write maintainable code, and ensure system reliability as user base grows.

What We’re Looking For

  • Broad Engineering Foundation: 3+ years of professional software engineering experience working across both backend and frontend systems.
  • Language Agnostic: Fluency in modern languages and frameworks (e.g., Python, TypeScript/Node.js, Go, React, Rust, PostgreSQL) and a track record of learning new technologies quickly.
  • Product-Minded & Pragmatic: You prioritize delivering value to users over tech stack dogmatism, preferring rapid iteration over over-engineering.
  • Strong Ownership: A track record of taking complex features from concept to production with minimal supervision.
  • SF Bay Area Presence: Based in or willing to relocate to the San Francisco Bay Area for collaborative in-office work days.

Nice-to-Haves

  • Experience in fast-paced startup environments or early-stage team dynamics.
  • Exposure to cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform).
  • Interest or experience building with AI/LLM frameworks and APIs.

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.
