StreamsPlatform is our cutting-edge suite of new products for the real estate industry - and also a shared platform layer of data, services, and capabilities that feeds and powers other products across the business. We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer (SE III) who codes with AI tools daily, applies strong architectural judgment, and can take a vague concept and turn it into a well-designed, production-ready system. You'll ship product features and help build the underlying platform, working alongside a small, growing team (currently ~5 engineers) of senior-level peers in an AI-first engineering culture.

What You'll Do
  • Design and build backend services and APIs for both StreamsPlatform products and the shared platform layer that feeds other products, applying sound architecture principles (scalability, maintainability, clear boundaries) from day one.
  • Use AI coding tools as a core part of your daily workflow - accelerating implementation while maintaining high standards for code quality, correctness, and design.
  • Take ambiguous, early-stage product concepts and drive them to detailed, well-architected technical solutions.
  • Collaborate closely with a small team of senior engineers, product, and design to ship new features and products for the real estate industry.
  • Contribute to technical decisions around cloud infrastructure, service architecture, and system design as the platform and team scale.
  • Participate in code review, design review, and mentorship as part of a collaborative, high-caliber engineering group.
Required Qualifications
  • 7+ years of professional software engineering experience.
  • 1+ years of experience programming with AI coding tools/assistants (e.g., Claude Code, Copilot, Cursor, or similar) as part of your regular workflow.
  • Strong backend development experience - designing, building, and maintaining services and APIs.
  • Experience programming in Go.
  • Solid experience with cloud platforms and cloud-native application development.
  • Demonstrated strong software architecture skills - able to design clean, scalable, maintainable systems.
  • Proven ability to take vague or loosely defined concepts and drive them to detailed, well-engineered solutions.
  • Strong collaboration skills and ability to work effectively within a tight-knit engineering team.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience with AWS, Kubernetes, React (front-end), and/or building AI-powered SaaS applications.
Why Join Us
  • Work on StreamsPlatform, our newest and most cutting-edge set of products and platform for the real estate industry.
  • Join an AI-first engineering culture alongside a team of experienced, senior engineers, with high ownership from ambiguous concept through to shipped, production-quality software.

We offer a competitive total rewards package including:

  • 3 Medical plans to choose from - 1 PPO and 2 HDHPs
  • 2 Dental plans to choose from
  • Vision
  • HSA - company-funded
  • Short-Term Disability - company-paid
  • Long-Term Disability - company-paid
  • Basic Employee Life Insurance - company-paid
  • Voluntary Dependent Life Insurance
  • Voluntary Accident Insurance
  • Voluntary Critical Illness
  • Voluntary Hospital Indemnity
  • ID Protection
  • Pet Insurance
  • 401(k) Retirement Savings with company match
  • Paid PTO/Vacation/Sick Time
  • 11 company-recognized holidays
  • Company-paid Parental/Disability Leave

In addition, at IRE, we focus on driving top results providing:

  • Opportunities to grow within our company;
  • Potential to work in a remote setting;
  • Exciting/energetic work environment and fun, creative culture.
