Description

At AgencyAnalytics, our Staff Developers are T-shaped: you operate broadly across multiple technical domains but also dive deep into specific problem areas when needed. You're part strategist, part builder, part mentor, and you’re just as comfortable writing production code as you are setting architectural direction.

As a Staff Developer working with our Core Experience and Reporting squads, you can expect to be brought into initiatives at the strategy and discovery phases to ideate on what’s possible. You’ll experiment and drive new changes to existing system architectures. You’ll be a coach and mentor to our engineering team. You’ll set the operating rhythm to balance high efficiency with high quality, along with other Staff Developers and technical leaders.

Key Responsibilities

  • Your time will be divided between leading cross-functional technical projects, building and reviewing architectures on our Reporting and Core Experience squads
  • You’ll be setting and driving coding standards, technical processes, and tooling across engineering
  • You'll prioritize and work on multiple projects from start to finish, balancing quality, stability and project delivery.
  • Through code reviews and mentoring, you'll set a high-quality bar. As well, you’ll actively look for ways to improve the overall quality of our codebase.
  • You'll work across teams to promote an open, collaborative approach to architecture, technical patterns, and complex problem solving.

Skills, Knowledge & Expertise

  • You’ve got 8+ years of SaaS development experience under your belt, with a track record of leading technical initiatives to successful outcomes.
  • Previous experience coding backend OOP codebases is a strong asset
  • You’ve previously held a Staff Developer or higher title, and you’re ready to hit the ground running at that level.
  • You’re hands-on and code daily, especially in React, TypeScript, but you're also able to zoom out and guide system-wide decisions.
  • You’ve architected complex frontend systems, balancing performance, scale, and developer experience.
  • You're fluent in frontend performance best practices, and you know how to monitor and optimize UI experiences.
  • You’ve worked closely with Backend Engineers and UX/UI Designers to translate high-level goals into elegant, scalable interfaces.
  • You’ve got serious chops in software observability, you know how to build for it, teach it, and scale it across teams.
  • AI tooling doesn’t scare you. You’ve dabbled (or more than dabbled) in using AI to generate components, test code, or streamline code review.
  • You thrive in ambiguity and can operate at different levels, from system architecture down to pair programming with a junior dev.
  • You’re a mentor, coach, and collaborator. Whether it’s through code reviews or casual Slack convos, you make people better.
  • You know how to delegate effectively, and you’re excellent at unblocking teams and keeping things moving.
  • You believe in iteration and evolution of architecture vs. re-architecting from scratch
  • You advocate for iterative improvements over full rewrites, you believe the best architecture is one that evolves.

Our Stack

  • Typescript, React, and Redux
  • Modern PHP (PSR) + Laravel
  • GCP Cloud SQL (MySQL), BigQuery, and Redis
  • GCP Cloud Tasks and PubSub
