Key Responsibilities
Amperity is looking for a Lead Software Development Engineer to join Team BASS. Team BASS is the "Swiss-army-knife" of our engineering organization, overseeing the critical intersection of developer productivity, shared service platforms, and high-scale Spark infrastructure.
You will be the team's strategic anchor, bringing the deep experience necessary to evaluate enterprise patterns. You will establish a multi-year strategic North Star for our internal platforms. You will work with Product and partners to connect the technical strategy to product strategy, customer value, our priorities, and measurable outcomes. We need a leader who has seen complex problems solved at scale in multiple ways and can translate that wisdom into clear, simple technical direction for a high-performing team.
Requirements
Technical leadership experience with experience leading architectural strategy for high-scale, distributed systems.
Expertise in large-scale data processing (Spark or a similar distributed framework) , with the ability to evaluate complex enterprise patterns and explain the "why" behind architectural choices.
A love for learning and the ability to ramp up quickly on new stacks: While we use Clojure, we value your ability to apply deep architectural principles to our language of choice.
Practitioner-level knowledge of AI/ML: Experience with integration of AI/ML best practices, specifically how to leverage LLMs and agentic workflows for infrastructure automation and developer velocity.
Expertise in driving clarity within complex environments , showing the ability to turn high-level business or technical uncertainty into concrete engineering direction.
Experience working with diverse partners to translate technical tradeoffs into outcomes that serve both the business and the long-term health of the platform.
A demonstrated history of mentorship , having coached other senior engineers and built technical pipelines that outlast any single project.
We offer all the benefits you'd expect from a great place to work: 100% employee healthcare coverage, transportation subsidies, a comfortable work environment with plenty of snacks, and other employee experience perks like events and activities, both in-person and remote. We also offer self-managed PTO and the flexibility to do your best work in the way that works for you.
