This role is with one of Dex's trusted partner companies. We work closely with their teams to truly understand their culture, goals, and what they're looking for, so we can match you with the right opportunity and give you context about the role before you commit to a process.
The role
This company is building the definitive API for global tax automation. Think complex financial systems, real-time compliance, and a product suite that plugs directly into enterprise operations. They're backed by leading VCs, have significant ARR, and are growing rapidly, tackling a problem few others can solve at this scale.
You'll join a lean engineering team that owns problems end-to-end, not just features. This is a principal-level seat: you'll co‑own the roadmap with product, drive architecture, and operate what you build in production. This isn't a ticket‑taker role; it's about setting the technical bar and shipping fast, continuously, and iteratively across the full product lifecycle.
The work
- Design, build, and operate mission-critical REST APIs that power global tax compliance for enterprises.
- Take full ownership of products from ideation through delivery, support, and iteration, gaining deep customer insight.
- Ship across the stack, from backend business logic in Node.js/TypeScript and Go to customer-facing interfaces in ReactJS.
- Drive architectural decisions and tooling choices, ensuring scalability and reliability in a high-growth environment.
- Champion a culture of continuous delivery, shipping fast and iteratively while maintaining high quality standards.
What You Bring
- Fluency in multiple languages across the stack, with a strong background in Node.js/TypeScript, Go, or ReactJS.
- Proven experience scaling and operating large-scale microservices in high-growth environments.
- A strong sense of ownership: you ensure code is tested, features are delivered, and production systems are clean.
- A builder's mindset: you ship fast, continuously, and iteratively, using data to drive decisions.
- Full professional proficiency in written and spoken English.
