Tilt (check us out here) is looking for a Software Engineer II to join our Leave Experience team and help us scale our product by independently delivering high‑quality features, improving technical systems, and collaborating deeply with cross‑functional partners. This full‑time role reports to the Engineering Manager and we want you to be successful here at Tilt!

• Independently build and deliver medium‑size features and projects that align with business goals by breaking down complex tasks, estimating effort, and delivering reliably with support from senior engineers.
• Improve system reliability and maintainability by reducing bugs and technical debt.
• Actively engage in product and engineering discussions and team cadences such as stand‑ups, backlog refinement, and retrospectives, offering thoughtful feedback and driving improvements.
• Write maintainable, well‑documented code and participate in code reviews that promote shared learning and respectful feedback.
• Share knowledge and provide guidance to developers with less experience in domains or areas of the codebase where you have knowledge.
• Identify and communicate risks, bugs, or roadblocks early and clearly, collaborating with stakeholders to identify and implement solutions.
• Escalate architectural or cross‑team concerns to senior engineers and, when needed, to product, design, and engineering leadership.
• Own specific product components and demonstrate improvements over time.
• Participate in our on‑call rotation to help manage engineering escalations and ensure system reliability.

• You’ve independently delivered full‑stack features from design to deployment in production systems, leveraging Python/Django on the backend and React on the frontend.
• You work independently and deliver projects on time with minimal oversight by effectively time‑boxing your efforts and proactively seeking help when needed to stay unblocked.
• You consistently write high‑quality code and are skilled at breaking down complex problems.
• You bring high levels of empathy to your work, mentoring and collaborating with teammates thoughtfully while connecting deeply with Tilt’s mission.
• You are comfortable working in ambiguous environments and help figure things out.
• You are comfortable using many systems at once and can learn software quickly.
• You are fearlessly flexible and curious and you thrive in an environment where we don’t have all the answers.
• You have experience working in startups and/or B2B SaaS environments.

• Health & Family First – balance work and personal life, get things done at a pace consistent with business needs, show up and be reliable, encourage others to put their health and family first.
• Autonomy + Team – highly organized, manage multiple priorities and deadlines, focus on scale and building.
• Be Curious – dig in and ask questions, avoid negative assumptions, assume positive intent, seek professional growth.
• Love Our Customers – empathy and compassion, strive to meet people where they are.
• Fearlessly Flexible – go with the flow, deal with ambiguity, work without clear direction.

The projected annual salary range is $110,000 - $130,000 USD plus stock options (ISOs), because we believe everyone should have some stake in our business. We are people‑first and this ain’t some PR jazz, we truly give a damn about our peeps!

• Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision benefits paid at 100% for all employees and 50% for dependents.
• 401k + match (100% match on the first 3%, 50% match on the next 2%).
• $100 monthly to spend on “What Matters Most”.
• Responsible Time Off – take what you need, when you need it!

We are a fully remote company. We are committed to being fearlessly flexible and ensuring that all employees are set up and have the autonomy to do their best work, as well as have the balance to care for their health, family and life outside of work. Overall, we trust our team and are focused on outcomes not outputs.

We celebrate and support our differences. We believe in the power of equality which is why we…
