Role overview

Generalist Software Engineer role for engineers who prefer owning problems rather than a single technical layer.

The role moves between the serving path, control plane, tooling, and hardware interface as business needs change.

Employment and team

  • The role is full time and part of the Software team.
  • The role is based in Riyadh.

What you will do

  • Take a problem from ambiguous definition through shipment, choosing the layer where it should be solved.
  • Move across services, interfaces, data paths, and the systems underneath.
  • Build tooling that removes work for everyone else.
  • Read unfamiliar code quickly and change it safely.
  • Own what you ship, including when it pages someone.

What you need

  • Three years or more of production software engineering experience.
  • Fluency in at least one systems language and one high-level language.
  • Meaningful experience working at more than one technical layer.
  • Comfort with ambiguity and with making decisions rather than waiting.

Useful, not required

  • Infrastructure, Linux, or distributed systems background is useful but not required.
  • Open source contributions are useful but not required.
  • Experience at a small company with broad ownership boundaries is useful but not required.

What the company offers

  • Foundational technology built in-house at an early-stage deep technology company.
  • Meaningful ownership and impact.
  • Competitive early-stage compensation.
  • Close collaboration with a small, senior team.
  • Problems combining hardware, systems, and AI at scale.
