Job Description:

As a Staff Software Engineer at Apollo, you’ll be responsible for leading the technical direction and execution of complex, high-impact initiatives that span teams and systems. Your influence will extend beyond your immediate team—shaping architectural decisions, elevating engineering practices, and mentoring future leaders.

Job Responsibility:

  • Architect and build scalable, high-availability systems that run 24/7 and support mission-critical workflows
  • Own and deliver multi-tier, high-volume applications with performance, accessibility, and resilience in mind
  • Write high-quality, maintainable code with a strong focus on developer experience and system performance
  • Drive and uphold engineering best practices, including code reviews, test coverage, monitoring, and observability
  • Provide technical leadership across cross-functional teams, guiding architecture, trade-offs, and execution
  • Mentor and sponsor engineers to grow their impact and deepen engineering culture
  • Lead large-scale, cross-team projects from concept to production
  • Deliver clear, objective feedback to peers and junior engineers through structured reviews and 1:1s

Requirements:

  • 10+ years of deep experience building and scaling backend systems in production environments
  • Proven ability to develop features with performance, reliability, and scalability in mind
  • Strong product intuition—balancing technical scope with MVP delivery
  • Expertise with message queues, background jobs, and distributed system patterns
  • Familiarity with observability tools (e.g., GCP Logging, Prometheus, NewRelic)
  • Demonstrated ability to leverage AI tools (e.g., code generation, debugging, automation) and stay current with emerging AI trends
  • Experience with LLM architecture, pipelines, or applied AI tooling is a strong bonus

Nice to have:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or related field (or equivalent experience)
  • Proficiency in one or more general-purpose programming languages (e.g., Java, Python, Ruby, Go)
  • Experience integrating with third-party APIs, including handling rate limits, failure cases, and retries gracefully
