Sr. Software Engineer, Estimate

What You'll Do

• Work across a large surface area of our product – optimizing queries, building React components, establishing frontend state patterns, writing e2e tests, integrating external APIs, and occasionally digging into our CAD and geometry layers.
• Own projects end-to-end: work cross-functionally to shape product solutions, translate requirements into actionable engineering work, and communicate risks and opportunities early – without needing heavy overhead to get there.
• Maintain high code quality through risk-based tests and thoughtful code reviews.

About You

• You're a generalist engineer who moves fluidly across a codebase. Full-stack proficiency is a starting requirement, but what we're really looking for is range: someone equally comfortable untangling a tricky SQL performance issue, building a niche canvas visualization component, or navigating an unfamiliar API.
• You push into unknown territory rather than waiting for a clear path to be laid out – taking initiative when requirements are ambiguous, coordinating across functions to get unblocked, and driving toward a solution. You have a track record of owning features end-to-end and bringing others along with you.
• You have strong TypeScript/JavaScript fundamentals and solid experience with React, Node.js, REST, and SQL.
• You are drawn to creating software for the built world. This doesn't mean you need industry experience – it might be a renovation you've done, an interest in how buildings actually come together, or just a pull toward software that connects to something physical and real.
• Experience with graphics, geometry, or spatial programming is a plus – not because it's required day-to-day, but because you shouldn't be averse to that kind of work when it comes up.
