Senior Software Engineer, Platform
Own the architecture and delivery of our CRM and data-driven prospecting platform in a zero-to-one environment. You’ll turn fuzzy problems into systems, standards, and processes that help BD, M&A, and portfolio teams move faster. This is an AI-first orchestration role: connect people, data, and systems to automate high-impact workflows and surface the right insight at the right moment.
Key Responsibilities
Build the source of truth
-
Design a unified “system of record + insight” that powers right-time outreach to top prospects
-
Model entities (accounts, people, firms, signals) with identity resolution and data quality guardrails
-
Ship self-serve reporting and dashboards with clear SLAs and definitions
Orchestrate AI-first workflows
-
Automate multi-step GTM and BD processes across CRM, email, LinkedIn, and messaging
-
Stand up LLM-powered agents for research, summarization, due-diligence prep, and follow-ups
-
Implement RAG pipelines so teams see the right docs, notes, and signals at the right time
-
Tune prompts, guardrails, and evaluation harnesses for accuracy, tone, and safety
Integrate data & systems
-
Build and maintain two-way integrations between Salesforce and external data providers
-
Connect APIs, webhooks, and event streams to keep data enriched, clean, and continuously updated
-
Establish pragmatic privacy, reliability, and change-management practices
Prototype fast, scale what works
-
Partner with BD and M&A leaders to identify high-friction workflows and measurable outcomes
-
Deliver MVP automations quickly, instrument impact, and productionize winning pilots
-
Define standards (runbooks, schemas, contracts, SLAs) that scale across the portfolio
Tech Stack
-
Python, TypeScript (Node.js, React, Next.js), TailwindCSS, Postgres (Supabase), n8n, Prefect, Modal, Redis
What We’re Looking For
-
8+ years in software engineering with meaningful ownership of CRM-centric platforms and/or revenue/ops systems; you thrive in ambiguity and create process where none exists
-
Strong product sense for BD/M&A workflows; translate qualitative feedback into quantitative goals and SLAs that stick
-
Deep integration experience (APIs, webhooks, auth), plus identity resolution and data governance fundamentals
-
Hands-on with AI integration: calling LLMs, building RAG pipelines, prompt design, evaluation, and guardrails
-
Clear, concise communication; you incorporate feedback from technical and non-technical partners into roadmaps that land on time
-
Bonus: experience automating diligence (market maps, call notes, deal rooms), multi-channel orchestration (email/LinkedIn/Slack), and building portfolio-wide reusable components
