Senior Software Engineer

Who you are

• Proficiency building web services and APIs using TypeScript and Node.js alongside modern web frameworks like React
• Strong SQL database skills and practical experience interacting with varied relational data stores
• Hands-on experience containerizing applications with Docker and deploying remotely via Helm to Kubernetes environments
• Practical working knowledge of cloud services, including AWS S3, API Gateway, and SQS messaging infrastructure
• Capability using modern AI-assisted engineering tools to optimize personal development velocity

What the job involves

• As more cities and private communities adopt Flock's ecosystem, deploying hardware efficiently is our primary engineering scaling challenge
• Building a comprehensive planning and customer operations portal that connects urban planning, municipal compliance, and physical deployment requires sophisticated software design
• You will engineer core software engines that calculate optimal device placement, automate complex permitting workflows across thousands of jurisdictions, and deliver unified dashboard interfaces for deployment teams and customers
• Architect geospatial tools and routing algorithms that map optimal, effective locations for hardware, drones, and safety devices
• Build automated permitting integrations that streamline submissions, tracking, and approvals across municipalities and utility providers
• Design unified customer and deployment dashboards that deliver real-time visibility into device installation progress and fleet health
• Develop robust backend web services using TypeScript, Node.js, and SQL databases to power real-time planning data interactions
• Deploy and manage containerized microservices across cloud environments using Docker, Helm, and Kubernetes
• This isn't a front-end or UI-only engineering role, you will build full-stack web applications, backend services, database schemas, and cloud deployment pipelines
• This is not an RF hardware design or field operations position, you will write the software platform that powers hardware deployment workflows rather than managing physical site installs
• This isn't a siloed maintenance assignment, you will build zero-to-one planning tools, solve complex geospatial challenges, and directly influence product growth
