Job Description

About Macroscope

Macroscope aims to be the source of truth of what's happening for any company that builds software. Our mission is to give leaders clarity and engineers time.

We help leaders understand how their products and codebases are evolvingwhats changing, whos working on what, and where progress is happeninggrounded in the ultimate source of truth: the code.

Macroscope is founded by former entrepreneurs who have started and sold multiple companies, and operated as product/engineering executives at public tech companies. We're fortunate to be supported by the best VC firms and angels in the business, including Lightspeed Venture Partners, Thrive Capital, Google Ventures, and Adverb.

Our technology stack: Typescript/React (front-end), Golang (backend), Temporal, Google Cloud (GCP), Postgres, Terraform, custom-built AST code walkers in various languages (Golang, Typescript, Swift, Python, Rust)

About the role

We're looking for a strong engineer early in their career with an insatiable hunger to learn and become exceptional. You will work alongside a team of incredibly talented and senior engineers to contribute to our back end services and the API layer and infrastructure that powers all our core customer features. You'll also contribute directly to the many AI systems that power these features. You'll work closely with our founders, our entire engineering team and our designer to build products that deliver value to our customers.

Qualifications

  • You are early in your career, but you've ideally worked in codebases that are complex, durable, professional and maintained in such a way that a fast-growing engineering team can contribute and get up to speed.

  • You have a proven track record for being extremely self motivated with a hunger to improve your skills, taking it upon yourself to learn new ideas and concepts on your own.

  • You have experience writing software for distributed back-end services as part of a larger engineering team.

  • You have demonstrable experience working alongside other engineers and designers to write software that powers well crafted, delightful product features.

  • You've worked on beloved and at-scale products, ideally in the B2B SaSS space.

  • You have experience working or interfacing with AI systems, LLMs and RAG.

  • You have a mastery around the various AI-tools that can help accelerate you as an engineer, and have a strong desire to stay on top of the best new tools in the space.

  • You've ideally also worked in a small startup environment with little process and structure.

  • It's not a requirement, but you ideally have some experience working on or contributing to front-end systems (Typescript, React, HTML, CSS, etc)

About you

  • You are extremely high agency. We are a small startup and we intend to keep an extremely flat organizational structure for as long as possible. Instead of relying on people managers, product managers and heavy processes, we rely on exceptionally talented individuals with high agency to be self-motivated towards contributing to our mission.

  • You want to work at an early stage start-up. The default state of any startup is failure. The only way to overcome the daunting odds of making a startup venture successful is for a densely packed group of insanely hard working and talented people to work together to building something useful to and loved by customers. If you're not willing to work extremely hard on something high risk, this startup isn't for you.

  • You act like an owner. You put immense care and craft into what you build because you take responsibility for all parts of the product. You don't walk past broken windows.

  • You care about what we're building. Life's too short to work on something you're not passionate about. We are a small group of ambitious people who want to build something insanely great that we want to use, and that we think every company will want to use. If our mission and product doesn't resonate with you, we understand and would encourage you to find something that does.
