<strong>About LogRocket</strong>

&nbsp;

Founded in 2016, LogRocket's goal is to make every experience on the web as perfect as possible. We're solving a huge challenge for product managers and developers - understanding the user experience. LogRocket is the first system that gives these teams complete visibility into their customer's experience using their web apps - through pixel-perfect replays of user sessions and clear insight into logs, errors, and network activity.&nbsp; We've already attracted an elite roster of over 2,800 customers including ClassPass, Capital One, Cisco, and Rippling, just to name a few. Our focus is on building software with care and craftsmanship and our engineering <a href="https://blog.logrocket.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer">blog posts</a> offer a taste of that.

&nbsp;

Backed by top investors such as Matrix Partners, Battery Ventures, and Delta-V Capital, we've raised $55M in funding and we're eager to bring talented people onboard to support our growth. We're on a mission to improve society's experience with software and that's where you come in.

Responsibilities

<li>Own the architecture and roadmap for a core product area end-to-end — from data model to UI — partnering with design and product to ship experiences customers love</li>

<li>Lead the design of systems that surface insight from data at massive scale. Think real-time search across billions of log entries or automatic detection of common user paths across millions of events</li>

<li>Drive adoption of AI/ML in the product, from bug-detection pipelines to full-stack AI-powered recommendations</li>

<li>Set technical direction for scaling our infrastructure cost-effectively while maintaining reliability under heavy load</li>

<li>Raise the bar for the team: mentor engineers, review architecture decisions, and model strong full-stack craftsmanship</li>

Qualifications

*<strong>If you don’t meet all of these, we still encourage you to apply. We believe code is code, and learning new tools is part of joining a new team.</strong>*<br><br>

<li>8+ years as a full-stack engineer, with a track record of owning both production frontend (React or similar) and backend systems. You’re as fluent in the UI layer as in APIs and data.</li>

<li>Fluency with AI-assisted development tools (Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code, etc.) and excited about building AI-powered capabilities into the product</li>

<li>A strong hands-on collaborator with a bias to action. You lead from the front and help the team deliver on their estimates</li>

<li>A track record of mentoring engineers and elevating team-wide technical practices</li>
