Roles

Senior Software Engineer

What Is a Senior Software Engineer?

The Role

Builds the hardest parts of the system and mentors the rest of the team. Senior judgment is what keeps an MVP from turning into something you have to rebuild.

What They Do

  • Builds the most complex and riskiest parts of the system.
  • Mentors other engineers and reviews their work.
  • Spots design problems before they become expensive.
  • Keeps the code maintainable as features are added.

When It Matters

On every build, and especially MVPs and rescues. Senior judgment is what keeps a first release from turning into something you have to rebuild.
