Senior Software Engineer

About Mural Group

Mural Group partners with early-stage startups to help them build their foundational teams. We serve as recruiting partners to founders and hiring managers at Seed to Series B companies across industries like fintech, healthtech, AI/ML, developer tools, and marketplaces. This job posting represents multiple Senior and Staff Software Engineering openings with our clients. Rather than applying to a single role, you’ll be considered for several opportunities aligned with your interests, skill set, and compensation preferences.

What We're Looking For

While each client has specific needs, we're generally seeking engineers who are:

• Experienced builders – You've shipped production software at scale and are comfortable across the stack or deeply specialized in backend or infrastructure.
• Product-minded – You think beyond the code and care deeply about how your work impacts end users.
• Startup-proven or startup-ready – You’re comfortable with ambiguity, quick iteration, and wearing multiple hats.
• Autonomous with a bias for action – You take initiative and move fast without waiting on permission.
• Strong communicators – You’re collaborative and thoughtful, especially in remote, async-first environments.

Example Projects You May Work On

Depending on the client and team, you might:

• Architect and deploy systems from the ground up using serverless, containerized, or cloud-native frameworks (AWS, GCP, Kubernetes, etc.)
• Build AI-powered features, such as personalized interview coaching tools, skills matrices, or generative assistants powered by LLMs
• Create complex data pipelines and integrations in domains like fintech, logistics, or healthcare
• Improve developer experience through clean CI/CD pipelines, observability tooling, or dev infrastructure
• Own full-stack product delivery alongside product and design—rapid prototyping through to scale

Typical Tech Stacks

Each client is different, but we frequently look for engineers comfortable with the following:

• Languages & Frameworks: TypeScript, Python, Go, Node.js, React, Next.js, Django, FastAPI, Java
• Cloud & DevOps: AWS, GCP, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform
• Data & AI: Postgres, Redis, Kafka, Snowflake, LangChain, vector DBs, OpenAI APIs
• Tooling: GitHub Actions, CircleCI, Datadog, Sentry, Vercel

What You Can Expect

• Multiple matched opportunities – We’ll assess your background and introduce you to roles where you can thrive
• High-impact work – You’ll join companies early enough to shape product, culture, and engineering foundations
• Flexible, remote-first environments – Most of our clients operate distributed teams and trust engineers to own outcomes
• Supportive recruiting – We’ll guide you through each step of the hiring process and act as your advocate

Compensation: Each client has a different pay range, but we generally see base salary ranges in the $140 - 215k range with equity.
