Staff Engineer leading technical development across the full stack for Pantheon's collaborative web platform. Working on innovative content management systems and cloud-native infrastructure.
Responsibilities
As a Staff Engineer on this team, you will be a technical leader and hands-on builder in equal measure.
You will work across the full stack — from the APIs and real-time synchronization services that power the platform's backend, to the visual editing interfaces and component systems that content teams interact with every day.
You will partner closely with product and design to shape the architecture, make build-vs-buy decisions, define engineering standards, and accelerate a small, focused team toward meaningful milestones.
Build backend services that power collaborative editing, conflict resolution, and content delivery — operating reliably at scale across a distributed cloud infrastructure.
Build frontend systems that enable visual, real-time editing experiences — including page builders and publishing workflows.
Requirements
10+ years of overall software engineering experience, with a strong track record of ownership across the full product lifecycle.
Genuine full-stack capability — you have shipped production systems on both the backend (APIs, data services, cloud infrastructure) and frontend (interactive UIs, component systems, browser performance).
Experience with real-time or collaborative systems — whether content editing, multiplayer applications, event-driven architectures, or live data synchronization.
Cloud-native fluency: you are comfortable designing and operating services in GCP, AWS, Cloudflare, or Azure, with experience in containerization and modern deployment pipelines.
API design expertise: you have strong opinions about REST, GraphQL, and event-driven interfaces — and know when to apply each.
Frontend architecture chops: you understand component modeling, state management, rendering performance, and the browser platform at a level that goes well beyond framework familiarity.
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience.
