Job description
At Qualia, we’ve built the leading B2B real estate technology that transforms the home buying and selling experience into a simple, secure, and enjoyable process. Our SMB and Enterprise products bring together users from across the real estate ecosystem—homebuyers and sellers, lenders, title and escrow agents, and real estate agents—onto a single shared digital closing platform, providing greater clarity and transparency to real estate transactions. Today, through our business customers across the country, millions of consumers use Qualia to close on homes every year.
WHAT YOU’LL WORK ON
We are seeking an influential Senior Software Engineer with a strong product-centric mindset and a passion for driving innovation. You excel at partnering with Product and Design to deeply understand user needs, identify key gaps in both user experience and underlying technology, experiment with solutions, and craft high-quality software that delivers significant market value. You’ll adeptly balance the need for rapid iteration and feedback during discovery phases with the drive for technical excellence and scalability as solutions mature and find product-market fit.
A key focus will be spearheading innovation within our established application suite. You will identify and implement opportunities to integrate Artificial Intelligence (AI) and other modern technologies. You’ll leverage your engineering expertise to bring cutting-edge ideas to life, working within and strategically modernizing our sophisticated codebase. This will involve thoughtful approaches, potentially applying patterns like the Strangler Fig to introduce innovation incrementally.
You’ll tackle complex challenges such as integrating disparate platforms, architecting solutions, integrating multiple services into a coherent user experience, and rethinking existing workflows to achieve significantly better, faster outcomes. You have a proven track record of delivering impactful solutions within innovative environments. You are excited by the challenge of evolving mature applications with new technology and innovative, iterative development practices.
HOW WE WORK:
- We are product-driven, customer-oriented, and people-oriented
- Our engineers often operate full-stack, focusing on backend architecture, platform integration, and driving technological evolution informed by user needs
- We aim to empower all our engineers, encouraging involvement in making the product impactful through incremental delivery, experimentation, and tight feedback loops
RESPONSIBILITIES
- Deliver significant value by designing, developing, and deploying solutions, informed by a clear understanding of user needs and business objectives
- Actively identify and articulate gaps between user needs/experience and current technical capabilities, proposing innovative and pragmatic solutions
- Lead the conception, design, and implementation of new features, AI-driven enhancements, complex integrations, and architectural improvements
- Architect and implement solutions for integrating multiple internal and external platforms seamlessly and securely
- Design and implement challenging technical solutions, such as Single Sign-On (SSO) across diverse application environments (Windows desktop and Web)
- Implement and leverage effective feedback mechanisms (e.g., analytics interpretation, user session analysis, A/B testing frameworks) to inform iterative development cycles and validate hypotheses quickly
- Strategically prioritize technical approaches, knowing when to optimize for speed and learning through rapid prototypes and iteration versus when to invest in robust, scalable architecture based on validated learning
- Champion and implement AI solutions for both internal productivity and external product features
- Analyze and rethink existing workflows, collaborating cross-functionally to design and implement more efficient, technology-driven processes
- Mentor and support team members, fostering a culture of collaboration, innovation, continuous improvement, and shared understanding of iterative development practices
- Contribute significantly to architectural decisions, applying modern patterns (like .NET Core, SaaS frameworks, Strangler Fig) appropriately to evolve our applications
- Drive a culture of quality through robust testing practices appropriate for the stage of development (e.g., rapid iteration vs. mature feature)
YOUR BACKGROUND THAT LIKELY MAKES YOU A MATCH
- You are a strong software engineer with 8+ years of C# experience, including significant, hands-on experience with modern .NET Core/8
- You have proven experience driving innovative projects and integrating technologies like AI/ML to solve practical problems
- Demonstrated success in integrating multiple platforms
- Experience strategically modernizing large codebases, ideally applying patterns like the Strangler Fig
- You possess a strong product mindset, demonstrating experience with various iteration techniques (e.g., Lean Startup, Agile methodologies), effective feedback gathering methodologies, and applying UX/design principles
- Proven ability to analyze trade-offs and make pragmatic decisions about technical investment, balancing speed-to-feedback in early stages with scalability and maintainability for mature products
- Experience identifying significant opportunities for value creation by bridging both user experience gaps and technical limitations/possibilities
- Track record of critically evaluating and improving underlying workflows for measurable efficiency gains
- Proficient with modern architectural patterns, SaaS frameworks (e.g., ABP.IO or similar), and cloud platforms (Azure preferred)
- Passionate about testing as a tool for both quality assurance and hypothesis validation
- A fast learner with the drive to champion and implement significant technological and process advancements within an established environment
- While this role is based in Superior, Colorado, we’re open to exploring remote possibilities for qualified candidates
TECH STACK:
- Primary: C#, .NET Core/8, .NET Framework 4.8, ASP.NET Core, ASP.NET
- Frameworks/Platforms: Experience with SaaS frameworks like ABP.IO is highly desirable. Experience with Identity Protocols (SAML, OAuth, OpenID Connect)
- Cloud: Azure Cloud Services, Azure DevOps
- Other: Javascript, Python (especially for AI/ML work), Docker
- AI/ML: Experience with relevant libraries/frameworks (e.g., ML.NET, Python libraries) and Azure AI services is a plus
- Methodologies: Strong understanding of Agile, Lean principles, A/B testing concepts
NICE TO HAVE:
- Applying Lean/Agile principles to technical decisions
- Designing & Analyzing Product Experiments (e.g., A/B tests)
- Cross-Platform SSO Implementation
- Applying Modernization Patterns (Strangler Fig, etc.)
- AI/ML Integration in Production Systems
- Workflow Analysis and Optimization
This role has a base annual salary of $150,000-$175,000 plus a competitive equity and benefits package. (Salary to be determined by relevant experience, location, knowledge, and skills of the applicant, internal equity, and alignment with market data.)
