About the Role (Hybrid 4 days onsite, 1 remote) All LevelsYou're interviewing for Opendoor, not any specific team. We don't slot you into a team on day one, rather once you're in, we match you to where you'll have the most impact and the most fun. This isn't a role for everyone. We choose hard mode. We're process-light, high-trust, and we don't put artificial boundaries between you and the work. You'll be expected to understand how your piece connects to the product and communicate at that level. We don't have project managers, we don't have scrum. We do reviews, proposals, demos, and trust. What We’re Looking ForYou ship. You pick the boring solution when boring is right and the novel one when it isn't. You measure twice and cut once, but you also know when "good enough and shipped today" beats "perfect next quarter." You think in first principles. You have opinions on architecture, distributed systems, and the tradeoffs between technologies. You can speak to the constraints, tripwires, and heuristics that come with operating in a complex and high touch environment. You've formed these opinions through your experiences, not from a book. You're language-agnostic. We care about deep expertise, not loyalty to a specific stack. If you've done the most impressive work of your career in a language or framework we don't or haven't used, we want to hear from you. You default to AI. You've already integrated modern AI tools into your daily workflow. You use them to move faster, not as a crutch. You communicate well. You write clear design docs. You give useful code reviews. You push back on bad ideas without making it personal. You can explain a technical tradeoff to a non-technical stakeholder and actually land it. You believe in what we're building. Not hype, conviction. You see the opportunity in what we're doing and you want to be part of finishing it. You have fun. We stay human when times are hard. We all know what we're trying to accomplish, and the task is daunting, but we're all in it together. What You’ll DoBuild production systems that real customers and real money depend on. Own features end-to-end, from design through deployment and beyond. Lead and participate in technical design reviews. Use AI tools daily and help push them further than anyone else in the industry. Review code, mentor teammates, and raise the bar on everything around you. Bridge the gap between infrastructure and product. QualificationsDeep software engineering experience with a track record of shipping production systems others depend on. Strong fundamentals in at least one general-purpose language; comfortable picking up new ones. Experience with relational databases and the ability to reason about performance at scale. Based in or willing to relocate to Miami, Toronto, or Seattle.#J-18808-Ljbffr
