Senior Engineer & Tech Lead

Plura is hiring a full stack Senior Engineer / Tech Lead to provide technical leadership while staying deeply hands-on with feature development. This is a role for someone who thrives in early-stage environments, balancing execution with systems thinking. You’ll oversee one junior engineer, but the role is primarily about building, scoping, and ensuring quality engineering work. Plura is built in React Native and Typescript running on a Node.js server and PostgreSQL. Your primary responsibilities will be: Build and ship product features

• Develop, launch, and maintain core app features end-to-end, from development through release
• Conduct code reviews, manage releases, and ensure engineering best practices
• Run and refine testing processes to keep the app stable and high-quality
• Identify and implement new coding solutions and processes using LLMs and AI tools

Support analytics and dashboards

• Consolidate existing analytics tools into a more streamlined setup
• Design and build dashboards to track progress against Plura’s key objectives
• Surface data insights that guide product and growth decisions

Drive engineering-led problem solving

• Review user engagement and usage data to identify patterns worth addressing
• Scope solutions, seek team input, and lead implementation of engineering fixes
• Improve tech workflows (sprints, reviews, tooling) to accelerate the team’s impact

What kind of person would succeed in this role?

• Experienced (8+ year eng) - able to get themselves unstuck in any situation
• Flexible - the role may change over time as AI systems evolve, the asks may change, but they’re able to roll with the punches
• Self-motivated/self-directed - independent productivity while working remotely is never an issue for them
