Senior Software Engineer
Dealpath is the AI-powered operating system for institutional real estate investing — purpose-built to help the world's leading firms capture more opportunities, make faster decisions, and execute with precision. As a Senior Software Engineer here, you'll ship features that go directly into the workflows of firms managing trillions in real assets, using AI coding tools as a core part of how you build every day. We're looking for engineers who take ownership end-to-end, think about the problems they're solving for customers, and want to help shape the way the built world transacts.
You’re excited about this opportunity because you’ll
- Work as part of a strong, passionate engineering team that takes craft seriously.
- Use AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, and others) as a core part of your daily workflow — directing them, evaluating their output, and iterating quickly to ship great features.
- Spend more time solving real product problems and less time on boilerplate — describing the problem clearly, letting the LLM generate code and tests, then refining until it's right.
- Rapidly build and deploy new product features that directly serve the needs of the world's leading real estate investors.
- Work closely with product and design to shape and prioritize what gets built.
- Collaborate with the quality team to write testable code, fix bugs, and continuously raise the bar.
- Review commits and AI-generated code to uphold standards of quality, security, and maintainability.
We’re excited that you are
- Use AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, and others) as a core part of your daily workflow — directing them, evaluating their output,
- Fluent in directing AI tools like Claude Code or Cursor: you describe a problem clearly, generate code and tests, evaluate the output critically, and iterate until it's right. (move to top)
- Able to evaluate AI-generated code by the same bar as hand-written code — spotting bugs, edge cases, security gaps, and performance issues before they ship.
- Analytical with solid problem-solving skills and strong CS fundamentals: data structures, system design, and the ability to reason about tradeoffs.
- Strong on product sense — you think about the user and the business, not just the implementation. You understand how your work connects to customer outcomes and company goals.
- Comfortable working independently — you take ownership end-to-end, unblock yourself, and drive projects to completion without constant oversight.
- A clear communicator, written and verbal, with the ability to articulate technical tradeoffs to both engineering and non-technical partners.
- Excited to work in a fast-paced startup environment and committed to a great developer and customer experience.
Qualifications
- Hands-on experience with AI-assisted development tools (Cursor, Claude Code, or similar) used in real production work, not just experiments.
- BS in Software Engineering, Computer Science, or a minimum of 8+ years of industry experience as a software engineer.
- Strong CS fundamentals: data structures, and the ability to reason about software system design — including performance, reliability, and data integrity tradeoffs.
- Demonstrated ability to work independently: you take ownership of features end-to-end, navigate ambiguity, and deliver without being managed step-by-step.
- Solid written and verbal communication skills — you can clearly describe a problem to an LLM, a teammate, or a product manager.
- 4+ years building web application back-ends using technologies like Ruby, Flask, or Node.
- 4+ years building web application front-ends with technologies like React, Angular, or Vue.
For bonus points
- You have experience integrating LLM APIs or building AI-assisted workflows into production systems.
- You have a builder mindset — you get excited about solving complex engineering challenges, not just implementing specs.
- You are interested in Commercial Real Estate (CRE) or FinTech.
- You have worked in a high-growth SaaS company and are comfortable in a codebase that's evolving fast.
