Sr. Software Engineer, RTB

About the Role

Higharc is a VC-backed startup changing how new homes are designed and built. As part of the Studio team, you’ll own the Ready-to-Build (RTB) product experience, supporting its transition from concept to active customer motion.

Responsibilities

• Own RTB-specific platform features: plan access controls and permissions, plan browsing and selection UX, and site/topography improvements that expand the range of lots RTB plans can serve.
• Contribute to core Studio sprint work as a full member of the Studio team—building and improving the web-based design tool used across Higharc's customer base.
• Serve as the technical point of contact for RTB across engineering squads: translate RTB product needs into well-scoped engineering work and represent RTB concerns in architectural decisions.
• Collaborate closely with RTB sales, implementation, and customer success teams to ground engineering work in real customer friction.
• Write maintainable, well-tested code in a mature TypeScript/React/Redux codebase, and leave things better than you found them.
• Help grow the team's shared understanding of the RTB customer use case as the product and customer base mature.

Requirements

• 5+ years of experience shipping production web applications. Bonus points if you've worked on a product targeting SMB or prosumer customers, or have dealt with complex permissions and access models in a multi-tenant system.
• Professional expertise across TypeScript, React, and Redux. Comfort with modern frontend tooling and CI/CD workflows.
• A bias toward movement, making decisions, and keeping things moving without needing a perfectly scoped ticket to get started.
• Strong product instincts—you can identify the right scope and push back on over-engineering.
• Ability to build trust beyond Engineering by communicating clearly and earning credibility with sales, implementation, and CS teams.

Nice-to-Have Skills

• Familiarity with WebGL, 3D graphics, or geometric modeling.
• Experience working in a startup environment where scope shifts and prioritization is fluid.

Benefits

• Remote-first work environment since 2018 with flexible hours.
• Competitive salaries with significant equity in a fast-growing, well-funded company.
• Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage.
• Flexible PTO and meaningful maternity/paternity leave for U.S.-based full-time employees.
• Short- and long-term disability plans and a 401K.
• Stipend to create an ideal home office.
