Job description
ABOUT SIRO
Siro is a Series A company using AI to coach field sales professionals, i.e., anyone who conducts sales in person. Most sales professionals in the U.S. work in field sales, but get ZERO on-the-job coaching because they are alone in the field. Top-performing sales reps out-earn surgeons, but most do not.

We believe that with the right tooling, field sales can become the most accessible path to financial freedom.

ABOUT THE ROLE
As a Staff Engineer / Tech Lead at Siro, you'll be instrumental in designing and building the backbone of our AI-powered coaching platform. You'll create robust, scalable backend systems and APIs that power our product, directly impacting the success of field sales professionals across the country.
You'll work on cutting-edge data and AI infrastructure, building the intelligence nexus for the entire field sales tech stack. Your work will cultivate a marketplace of new tools leveraging data that has never been collected or available before Siro.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
- Design, develop, and maintain scalable backend services and APIs that power our AI-driven coaching platform.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to translate product requirements into robust technical solutions.
- Architect and implement data models and database structures to support our growing platform needs.
- Develop and maintain integrations with third-party services and APIs.
- Implement monitoring and observability solutions to ensure system reliability and performance.
- Contribute to the continuous improvement of our development processes and best practices.
- Mentor junior engineers and provide technical leadership on complex projects.

QUALIFICATIONS
- 8+ years of overall software engineering experience.
- 6+ years of experience with relational databases and a strong understanding of database design and optimization.
- 2+ years of experience with Node.js and TypeScript in production environments.
- Proven track record of building APIs in technically demanding roles.
- Experience with cloud platforms, preferably Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
- Strong system design skills, with the ability to create flexible, scalable architectures.
- Excellent problem-solving skills and can tackle complex technical challenges.
- Experience with monitoring and observability tools for backend systems.

COMPENSATION
- We pay 75th percentile for our stage (Series A, $18M raised) and geography (NY/Tier 1 cities), per Pave's benchmarks.
- Staff level = ~$230K-$250K. Senior Staff level = ~$250K-$270K. We offer highly competitive equity grants.
