Senior Software Engineer

Join Anecdotes as a Senior Software Engineer and build high-impact product experiences at the core of our AI-native GRC platform. Own complex features end-to-end, work across the stack, and use modern AI tools to build and ship faster.

Anecdotes are redefining enterprise GRC for the AI era. We are the only AI-native enterprise GRC platform, built on a foundation of complete, accurate, and structured data automatically collected from your systems - trusted by some of the largest enterprises in the world, including Fortune 500 companies and leading auditors.

We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Product Applications team and build the next generation of Anecdotes’ product experiences.

We’re looking for engineers first - not specialists defined by one part of the stack. You’ll own complex product capabilities end-to-end, from architecture and backend systems to the user-facing experience, working closely with Product and other R&D teams.

You don’t need to be equally strong across every layer, but you should be curious and comfortable stepping beyond your primary expertise when the product needs it. Experience with frontend development, particularly React and TypeScript, is a strong advantage.

• Build Core Product Capabilities - Design, build, and scale high-quality features at the heart of the Anecdotes platform.
• Own Features End-to-End - Take complex product initiatives from technical design and architecture through implementation, production, and continuous iteration.
• Partner with Product - Work closely with Product to understand customer needs and business challenges and turn them into simple, powerful technical solutions.
• Build AI-Natively - Use modern AI development tools as an integral part of how you code, test, debug, explore solutions, and ship software faster.
• Shape the Architecture - Make thoughtful architectural decisions that allow our product to evolve quickly while maintaining scalability, reliability, and a high technical bar.
• Collaborate Across R&D - Work closely with engineers across different teams to build cross-platform capabilities and solve complex technical challenges.
• Raise the Bar - Mentor other engineers, lead technical initiatives, and continuously improve our development practices, tools, and frameworks.

• 6+ years of software engineering experience, with strong backend engineering fundamentals - Must.
• Strong experience building and shipping complex, production-grade product applications.
• Extensive hands-on experience with Python or another modern high-level programming language.
• Experience designing and developing distributed systems and microservices architectures.
• Strong understanding of databases, data modeling, API design, and scalable system architecture.
• Hands-on experience with cloud environments such as AWS, GCP, or Azure.
• Strong product mindset and the ability to understand a problem beyond the technical requirements and help shape the right solution.
• Proven ability to take ownership of complex initiatives and drive them independently from idea to production.
• Ability to mentor engineers, lead technical initiatives, and collaborate effectively within and across teams.
• BSc in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience.

Nice to Have

• Experience working across the stack, including frontend development with React and TypeScript - a strong advantage.
• Hands-on experience building products or features using LLMs, AI agents, or agentic workflows.
• Experience integrating AI capabilities into production applications.
• Experience working in a fast-paced startup environment
