Senior/Staff Software Engineer, Tech Lead
Merge Labs, San Francisco Bay Area
The role
We are looking for a senior, hands-on software engineer with broad technical experience and the judgment to help a small team solve difficult problems. You will personally design, implement, debug and ship critical software, while helping colleagues make good architecture and delivery decisions.
You will work across the stack as the problem demands: an experiment application, an SDK integration, a data interface, a performance issue or the tooling that helps everyone ship. Experience in scientific software, hardware, or instrumentation is especially useful, and we welcome strong engineers from other backgrounds who can learn quickly and work closely with domain experts.
The role is an individual contributor position. There may be an opportunity to take on broader software leadership, including people management, over time. The immediate opportunity is to build consequential software and lead through technical work. This role will report directly to leadership.
