About this team

Super.com engineering has four full-stack product development focus areas: fintech, travel, earnings, and a superapp membership program to unite them all. Between them, our dozens of microservices and event-driven architecture handle 1000s of requests and events per second, ingest over 1TB of data per day and process over $1MM per day in sales. We have 80 engineers across our product development and infrastructure teams. We work in close partnership with Product Managers, Designers, and QA in an agile, fast-paced scaleup environment that respects work/life harmony.

You will predominantly work with React on the frontend, and a combination of Python and Node microservices on the backend. Other technologies you’ll work with include Gitlab, AWS, Kubernetes, Postgres, Redis, Datadog, Amplitude, and Snowflake.

    • Contribute to quarterly OKR planning and brainstorming to ensure we are prioritizing technical initiatives to improve engineering productivity and architecture robustness
    • Help ensure our engineering teams strike the right balance between building quickly and building sustainably, and build vs. buy decision making
