Green-card filing pattern in this occupation

Context, not a finding about this posting: of this employer's 6 green-card filings in this occupation, 100% were for a worker who already held the job.

Files H-1B transfers

4 transfer filings in the last year, covering 4 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 7 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.

About the role

  • We're looking for a Staff Software Engineer who thinks like an infrastructure engineer but has deep fluency in frontend systems.
  • This is a high-leverage, low-oversight role.
  • You'll be setting technical direction for a foundational team, not just executing a roadmap someone else wrote.

Responsibilities

  • Frontend architecture: Own and evolve the architectural foundations of our frontend platform - module boundaries, micro-frontend patterns, shared component/design-system infrastructure, and state management strategy.
  • Developer experience & tooling: Build and maintain the build systems, local dev environments, CI/CD pipelines, linting/codegen, and internal tooling that other engineers depend on daily.
  • Software factory / agentic workflows: Continuously identify the biggest bottleneck in the engineering workflow and build AI-agent-driven automation to remove it, then move to the next one.
  • Cross-functional partnership: Work closely with product engineering teams, design systems, and platform/infra teams to make sure foundational investments actually solve real product-team pain points.

Requirements

  • Real world software engineering experience, with a track record operating at Staff level or equivalent scope/impact.
  • Experience designing and shipping internal developer tooling or platform infrastructure that measurably improved developer velocity.
  • Hands-on experience with AI-agent-driven or LLM-powered engineering workflows (agentic coding tools, autonomous pipelines, AI-assisted codegen/migration) - or a clear point of view on how to build them.

Nice to have

  • Experience with monorepo tooling, micro-frontend architectures, or large-scale frontend platform migrations.

Compensation

  • $192000 - $264,000 base salary (inclusive of bonus or commission)
  • $173,000 - $238,000 base salary (inclusive of bonus or commission)
