Role: Staff Software Engineer (Full Stack)
Location: Dallas, TX (Hybrid role)
Note: No work visa sponsorship is available for this role.
Staff Software Engineer (Senior role) to anchor our Portal platform and Node.js/Express microservices.
Heavy hands-on TypeScript/React and Node, API design, security, MongoDB, CI/CD, and operability on Azure/Kubernetes.
You raise the bar by example, simplify designs, mentor others, and own outcomes from code to production
About the team: Our Portal is the front door for multiple products. It’s a TypeScript/React micro-frontend environment backed by a fleet of Node.js/Express services behind an API gateway. We run containers on Azure Kubernetes, ship via GitHub Actions, use feature flags for progressive delivery, and measure what matters with OpenTelemetry plus ELK/App Insights. We validate quality with WebdriverIO/Sauce (incl. visual)
What you’ll do:
• Ship production code weekly across Portal MFEs (TypeScript/React) and Node.js/Express services.
• Design and evolve REST APIs: clear contracts, versioning, idempotency, safe rollouts, and deprecation plans.
• Improve performance end-to-end: Core Web Vitals in the browser, p95/p99 latency and throughput on services.
• Lead secure-by-default patterns: OAuth2/OIDC PKCE, service-to-service JWT, scopes, least privilege, secret hygiene.
• Make systems self-healing and self-service: health probes, autoscaling, canary and blue/green, safe rollbacks, config as code.
• Own MongoDB Atlas usage: pragmatic schema and index design, query shaping, migrations, TTL, performance diagnostics.
• Strengthen CI/CD: reusable GitHub Actions, environment protections, SBOM, CodeQL/SAST, quality gates.
• Build a resilient test strategy: unit and contract tests, reliable E2E, visual baselines, PSR gates in CI.
• Lead blameless incident reviews. Fix root causes and land durable guardrails.
• Coach engineers across time zones. Pair often, give crisp reviews, and turn hard problems into teachable moments.
• Partner with PM and Design to slice work by customer value and measure impact after release.
Tech you’ll use here • Frontend: TypeScript, React, MUI4/5, shadcn, Tailwind, Storybook, MFEs (iframe and module federation).
• Services: Node.js, Express (some Nest), REST APIs, webhooks, async jobs where it fits.
• Data: MongoDB Atlas v7→v8, schema design, indexing, migrations, some Postgres/Snowflake.
• CI/CD: GitHub Actions, environment protections, SBOM, CodeQL/SAST, automated rollbacks.
• Runtime: containers on Azure Kubernetes via an internal BY platform.
• Observability: OpenTelemetry, ELK/Kibana, Azure App Insights, actionable alerting.
• Testing: Jest/Vitest, contract testing, WebdriverIO + Sauce (E2E and visual), BlazeMeter for PSR.
• Delivery: feature flags, gradual rollouts, canary and blue/green
Qualifications —
Bachelor’s degree in computer science or engineering or any related field
A Minimum of 8 to 10 years building production web apps and services, 3+ years as a senior IC
with Deep TypeScript and React, including bundling, code-splitting, data fetching, and state design.
• Strong Node.js/Express fundamentals and REST API design at scale.
• Proven performance wins across browsers and Node (Core Web Vitals, latency, throughput).
• Solid CI/CD and ops sense with containers and Kubernetes on a major cloud.
• Comfortable with observability: traces, logs, metrics, and making them actionable.
• Applied security: OAuth2/OIDC PKCE, service JWT, scopes, threat modeling, secrets management.
• Excellent code reviews and mentoring that raise the bar.
Nice to have • Open Telemetry in browsers and Node. • ELK/Kibana and/or Azure App Insights at scale.
• MongoDB Atlas operations and cost/perf tuning. • Visual testing at CI scale.
• Multi-region SaaS, HA/DR patterns. • API gateways, rate limiting, and backpressure strategies.
• Reusable GitHub Actions, signed releases, and supply-chain hardening.
