About Very
(Remote – USA)

Very is a fully distributed technology firm led by expert problem-solvers who create efficient, scalable solutions that move commercial, industrial, and consumer products from pilot to production in record time.

We believe that real innovation happens in the grind — working shoulder to shoulder with clients who are building the future. Our team thrives on that energy. When we’re not helping clients deliver business-critical outcomes, we’re refining our craft and celebrating what it means to do hard things well.

We’ve built a collaborative, tight-knit culture that thrives in both remote and in-person settings. We’ve won numerous workplace awards over the years, including Great Place to Work certification and recognition from Parity.org as a Best Company for Women to Advance.

Our clients include well-known brands like Vizio, Peloton, Clear, iHeart Radio, and Fellowes — all determined to leverage connected devices and AI to drive meaningful impact. Our job is simple: help them win.

About This Role

We’re hiring a full-time, skilled Senior Software Engineer specialized in React/Typescript for one of our partners.

In this role, you’ll play a key role in building and maintaining secure, scalable applications that support critical customer and business needs. You’ll work across the presentation layer — from implementing complex front-end features to consuming and shaping API contracts while collaborating closely with cross-functional teams.

This role is hands-on: you’ll translate requirements into well-designed solutions, write production-ready code, participate in code reviews, and contribute to the overall reliability and performance of our systems. You’ll also help support our applications in production through on-call rotations and proactive issue resolution.

This position is ideal for an engineer who enjoys solving real-world problems, working in modern web environments, and contributing to applications end-to-end.
This is not an easy role. You’ll work in complex domains, under real deadlines, and with clients who expect you to bring clarity, confidence, and results. If you find satisfaction in doing hard things well — in solving tough problems, building real systems, and helping others rise to the challenge — you’ll fit right in.

What You’ll Be Working On

You’ll be focusing on building and enhancing complex, user-facing applications using modern front-end technologies. You’ll:

• Write production-grade React/Typescript code that meets high standards for maintainability, security, and observability.
• Implement comprehensive testing strategies (e.g., unit and end-to-end testing).
• Collaborate across engineering, design, and product to deliver high-quality outcomes.
• Identify and proactively address potential technical or operational risks before they impact customers.

Outcomes

1. Deliver High-Quality Features: Ship secure, reliable code that meets requirements, adheres to standards, and delivers measurable business value.
2. Strengthen System Reliability: Improve observability, performance, and operational excellence across services and components.
3. Support Cross-Functional Delivery: Collaborate effectively with lead engineers, designers, PMs, and client stakeholders.
4. Raise the Bar: Contribute to better patterns, tooling, and engineering standards across teams.
5. Enhance Customer Success: Proactively identify and resolve technical issues that could impact system behavior or user experience.

Responsibilities

• Implement features across the frontend application
• Participate in technical design discussions and contribute to architectural decisions.
• Write clean, scalable, and secure code following Very’s engineering standards.
• Create and maintain automated tests across all layers of the stack.
• Contribute to frontend deployment pipelines and application-level logging/monitoring.
• Participate in code reviews, offering constructive feedback that improves overall quality.
• Support documentation and knowledge sharing within teams.

Minimum Qualifications

General Experience

• BS or higher in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field
• 7+ years of professional software development experience, or demonstrated equivalent expertise in the required technologies.
• Full software development lifecycle experience, including requirements, design, implementation, testing, and deployment of modern web applications.

Technical Proficiency

• Deep expertise with frontend technologies including React, Expo, Vite and TypeScript

Requirements

• Must be US-based.

Skills

• Client Obsessed: Keeps the client’s success front and center. Measures technical choices by their business impact.
• Clear Communicator: Collaborates effectively with technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Quality-Driven: Holds themselves to high standards for code quality and reliability.
• Ownership Mindset: Takes responsibility for delivering solutions that work in real-world conditions.
• Problem Solver: Thrive in complexity and find solutions even when requirements are evolving.
