Mid-level Software Engineer / React and Ruby on Rails / DC area

A growing, remote-first SaaS company is seeking a mid-level software engineer to join its product engineering team. Candidates should have a few years of professional experience and be comfortable working in a collaborative, team-based environment. While this role is remote friendly, you MUST be located in the DC area.

This team is responsible for building and improving a platform that helps users streamline and digitize workflows. The work spans frontend-heavy feature development, full-stack collaboration, and ongoing improvements to core product experiences. Engineers contribute to both new feature development and enhancements to existing systems, with a strong focus on usability and performance.

The role leans heavily toward frontend development, particularly with React, while still maintaining exposure to backend systems and services. The backend environment is primarily Ruby on Rails, and while experience with Rails is preferred, the team is open to engineers with other backend backgrounds who are willing to learn. Engineers are encouraged to work across the stack, contributing where needed and continuing to expand their technical skill set.

As the product evolves, there is increasing focus on incorporating AI-driven functionality into the user experience. Engineers are expected to be open to leveraging modern development tools, including AI-assisted coding, as part of their workflow.

This is a strong opportunity for an engineer who is still growing in their career and is looking for an environment with mentorship, ownership, and clear paths for advancement.

What They’re Looking For

• 2+ years of professional software engineering experience
• Strong experience with TypeScript and React
• Back end experience ; experience with Ruby on Rails is preferred
• Experience working in collaborative development environments (code reviews, team workflows, etc.)
• Familiarity with databases, cloud platforms, or backend systems is a plus
• Comfort using modern development tools, including AI-assisted coding tools
• You must be local the DMV. While the role is remote friendly, there is an office located in Reston, and there may be occasions on which you will be encouraged or asked to come in office.
