About the Team
Netlify's engineering teams build the products, platforms, and infrastructure that empower millions of developers and builders to create, deploy, and scale modern web applications. From AI-powered workflows to edge infrastructure and developer experience, our engineering teams tackle challenges that directly shape how modern web applications are built and deployed. We’re hiring engineers at the senior and staff levels across multiple teams, spanning AI runners and workflow orchestration, accounts and billing, growth, developer experience, and platform engineering across compute, edge infrastructure, build systems, and observability. On our Experience team, we’re rethinking how people and agents interact with Netlify through our CLI, SDK, and APIs as more of our users arrive through agents.
We're looking for thoughtful, full-stack engineers who enjoy owning problems end to end, collaborating across disciplines, and solving complex technical challenges for products that millions of developers rely on every day. AI is a foundational part of how we build, so we value engineers who are excited to thoughtfully incorporate AI-assisted workflows while continuing to apply strong engineering fundamentals. As an engineer at Netlify, you’ll work alongside experienced engineers who care about building great software, sharing knowledge, and helping one another grow. We believe the best engineering happens when talented people are trusted to solve difficult problems together, share what they're learning, and create space for different perspectives to shape better solutions.
With our team, you'll have real ownership from day one - not a tiny slice of a massive codebase. Engineers here are trusted to make decisions, shape technical direction, and move quickly while collaborating closely with Product and Design.
What You'll Do
- Use your expertise in full-stack development (Our stack is TypeScript/JavaScript, React, Ruby, and Go) to ship reliable, scalable, performant code across our product suite.
- Build and maintain user-facing features, product APIs, and platform capabilities that scale to support millions of developers worldwide and lead projects from conception to delivery
- Apply strong engineering fundamentals, including testing, documentation, observability, and performance optimization, while thoughtfully incorporating AI-assisted development tools to accelerate prototyping, experimentation, and delivery.
- Navigate ambiguity with curiosity, contributing to both early-stage prototypes and production-ready applications that directly improve the developer experience and business outcomes.
- Practice proactive async communication and create visibility across projects by documenting your workflows and decision-making clearly.
- Participate in code reviews, on-call rotations, and continuous improvement efforts to reduce technical debt and maintain high engineering standards.
- Collaborate regularly with Engineering, Product, Design, and cross-functional teammates to design and implement experiences that help developers build faster and more effectively.
- Partner with teammates to share knowledge, mentor others through collaboration, and contribute to a thoughtful, inclusive engineering culture where continuous learning is encouraged.
What You'll Bring
- Demonstrated engineering proficiency with a curiosity for building with new technologies
- Strong full-stack expertise, with experience developing and maintaining production-quality software in modern full-stack environments. Required familiarity with one of the following: TypeScript and JavaScript, Go or Ruby for backend services and API development. Broader familiarity preferred.
- Extensive production experience delivering features and services that serve large user bases.
- Experience writing high-quality, testable code that's reliable and maintainable over time.
- Hands-on experience using AI-assisted development tools (such as GitHub Copilot, Claude, Cursor, GPT-based agents, or similar technologies) to build applications, improve engineering workflows, or accelerate software development, along with good judgment about when and how to apply them effectively.
- Critical thinking abilities and a solution-oriented approach to complex technical challenges.
- Ability to participate in an on-call rotation after onboarding, responding primarily to scaling and reliability incidents using established runbooks.
- A collaborative approach to problem-solving with curiosity about how your work supports teammates, users, and broader company goals.
- Growth mindset and openness to learning new tools, technologies, and best practices.
- Passion for working in a collaborative environment with teammates across distributed locations, and strong written and verbal communication skills, especially in asynchronous, remote-first environments.
This Role is a Great Fit If
- You're energized by building products and platform capabilities that help millions of developers create, deploy, and scale applications.
- You see ambiguity as a creative opportunity and enjoy solving problems where there isn't always a predefined path forward.
- You see AI as a multiplier for your engineering skills - not a shortcut - and can thoughtfully articulate where it adds value, where it doesn't, and how you use it responsibly.
- You enjoy owning problems from end to end and are motivated by opportunities to make meaningful technical and product decisions.
- Comfort working autonomously and making decisions within a distributed, async, remote-first team.
- You're excited by new tools, challenges, and opportunities to grow, even when they feel a little uncomfortable at first.
- You value curiosity, continuous learning, and creating an environment where teammates can learn from one another and do their best work.
- You want to work on a fully remote team that believes in autonomy, transparency, inclusion, and building a better web, together.
