About the role

  • Senior Software Engineer at EvenUp triaging and resolving high-priority customer escalations. Collaborating cross-functionally to identify recurring problems and improve product stability.

Responsibilities

  • Triage and resolve high-priority customer escalations across our product — diagnosing issues quickly, communicating clearly, and shipping reliable fixes
  • Own the full lifecycle of an escalation: from initial investigation and customer-facing updates to root cause analysis and long-term remediation
  • Work cross-functionally with CS, product, and other engineering teams to gather context and coordinate fixes
  • Identify recurring patterns in escalations and drive systemic improvements — better monitoring, cleaner failure modes, improved error handling
  • Own the product scope of your fixes: define what a complete resolution looks like, consider the customer experience holistically, and flag when an issue reveals a deeper product gap
  • Contribute to the team's tooling and processes: runbooks, observability, escalation workflows
  • Participate in rotating on-call coverage for critical customer issues
  • Raise the quality bar across the codebase through code review, post-mortems, and direct collaboration with other squads

Requirements

  • 5+ years of professional software engineering experience
  • Strong debugging and investigative skills — you're energized by a gnarly bug, not intimidated by it
  • Experience working across a full stack or deeply in a backend system; comfort navigating an unfamiliar codebase quickly
  • Ability to communicate clearly and calmly under pressure — to engineers, PMs, and customer-facing teams alike
  • Solid judgment about when to apply a targeted fix vs. address the underlying issue; you understand the trade-offs and communicate them proactively
  • Experience with observability tools (logs, traces, metrics) and production debugging
  • Ownership mentality: you follow a problem all the way to resolution, not just to the handoff
  • Strongly product-minded: you think about the customer experience, not just the code change — and you're comfortable making product calls without a PM telling you what to do.

Benefits

  • Choice of medical, dental, and vision insurance plans for you and your family.
  • Additional insurance coverage options for life, accident, or critical illness.
  • Flexible paid time off, sick leave, short-term and long-term disability.
  • 10 US observed holidays, and Canadian statutory holidays by province.
  • A home office stipend.
  • 401(k) for US-based employees and RRSP for Canada-based employees.
  • Paid parental leave.
  • A local in-person meet-up program.
  • Hubs in San Francisco and Toronto.
