As a Software Engineer (SWE3) at Karat, you'll build product features that directly improve how engineers are interviewed and hired. You'll take full ownership of projects within your team's scope, driving them from design through implementation, while collaborating closely with engineers, product managers, and designers to deliver high-quality software. This position requires a schedule that overlaps with U.S. business hours.
Embrace AI-assisted development as a core part of your workflow; stay current with emerging techniques and contribute to evolving team practices. - Design and build features across the full stack using a variety of programming languages, testing frameworks, and development tools. - Write clean, scalable services, components, and APIs; make sound architectural decisions within your workstream. - Own and deliver projects independently from design to release, including those with meaningful ambiguity and architectural complexity, with high-quality code and minimal defects. - Take strong ownership of all code you touch, proactively improving quality rather than just meeting the immediate requirement. - Collaborate with a cross-functional team of Analysts, Data Scientists, Designers, Product Managers, and Engineers to define and deliver product features. - Champion engineering best practices, including testing strategy, performance optimization, and technical debt management. ###
