Staff Software Engineer, Travel & Expense

Responsibilities

• Identify the highest-impact technical problems across Travel & Expense — including the cross-team gaps that individual teams can't see or own — and drive them to resolution.
• Set and raise the technical bar across the group through design reviews, architecture decisions, and hands-on work where it matters most.
• Partner as a peer with existing Staff Engineers and with EMs across expenses, travel, policy, and spend controls to align on direction and unblock execution.
• Act as a force multiplier: mentor senior engineers, improve how teams design and ship, and grow the next generation of technical leaders.
• Bring an AI-forward mindset to how the org builds, reviews, and operates.
• Contribute directly to the group's technical strategy and inform where leadership invests.

Requirements

• 8+ years of software engineering experience, with a track record of technical leadership across multiple teams or a group.
• Demonstrated ability to identify and drive ambiguous, cross-cutting problems to resolution without a defined charter.
• Deep experience designing and operating large-scale backend systems in production.
• Strong collaboration skills; a track record of raising the bar for engineers around you and working effectively with both ICs and managers.
• Excellent written and verbal communication.

Compensation

The expected salary range for this role is $240,000 to $285,000. However, the starting base pay will depend on a number of factors including the candidate’s location, skills, experience, market demands, and internal pay parity. Depending on the position offered, equity and other forms of compensation may be provided as part of a total compensation package.
