Senior Software Engineer

Walter is on a mission to change the way businesses hire remote talent, connecting talented professionals with amazing companies around the world.

AI-Enabled Development: Use AI tools (e.g., Copilot, Claude, or similar) to accelerate development, reduce repetitive work, and improve code quality.

This role has a strong emphasis on user-facing development — building intuitive, performant interfaces and components that merchants interact with daily. While full-stack capability is valued, you'll spend significant time on front-end architecture, UI implementation, and ensuring excellent user experiences across the product suite.

Key Responsibilities:

• Participate in front-end architecture decisions, component design patterns, and client-side performance optimization
• Contribute to discussions on full-stack integration and API design
• Deliver against roadmap commitments with a focus on quality, maintainability, and iteration — especially on user-facing surfaces
• Partner closely with Product and the Director of Engineering to align technical work with customer and business needs, and work alongside designers to ensure high-fidelity implementation of user experiences
• Document, mentor, and contribute to a culture of learning and openness
• Stay curious and experimental with new tools, frameworks, and AI workflows that can improve speed, quality, or developer experience

Requirements:

• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, with significant time spent on front-end or full-stack development
• Strong proficiency with modern JavaScript/TypeScript and front-end frameworks
• Demonstrated use of AI tools or automation in the development workflow
• Product mindset with comfort for ambiguity, iteration, and user-centric decision-making
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills

Current systems include a large .NET/C# foundation on the backend, so familiarity with these technologies is helpful for full-stack collaboration, but the primary focus will be on modern front-end development and the user experience layer.
