FloQast Jobs Information

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Software Engineer, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Software Engineer, you need strong programming skills, problem-solving abilities, and a degree in computer science or a related field. Familiarity with coding languages (such as Python, Java, or C++), version control systems like Git, and knowledge of software development methodologies are typically required. Excellent teamwork, communication, and adaptability distinguish top performers in this role. These skills ensure efficient, high-quality software development that meets user needs and adapts to technological changes.

What are some common challenges software engineers face when collaborating on large development teams?

Software engineers working on large teams often encounter challenges with communication, code integration, and maintaining consistent coding standards. Coordinating across multiple developers can lead to merge conflicts and misunderstandings about project requirements or priorities. Adopting tools like version control systems, regular code reviews, and clear documentation helps mitigate these issues. Building strong collaboration skills and proactively seeking clarification are key to ensuring smooth teamwork and project success.

What are Software Engineers?

Software Engineers are professionals who design, develop, test, and maintain computer software and systems. They use programming languages, engineering principles, and problem-solving skills to build applications, websites, or software solutions that meet specific needs. Software Engineers may work in a variety of industries, such as technology, finance, healthcare, or entertainment, collaborating with other team members to deliver functional and reliable software. Their role often involves analyzing user requirements, writing code, debugging errors, and continually improving software performance.

What is the difference between Software Engineer vs Software Developer?

The roles often overlap, but the Engineer role may require broader system knowledge and design skills.

Job description

Staff Software Engineer

At FloQast, we aren't just building tools; we are crafting the "Operating System for Accounting." As a Staff Software Engineer, you are a primary architect of this vision. This is a role for a technical visionary who thrives on solving "impossible" distributed systems problems and understands that the best code is the kind that empowers an entire engineering organization to move faster.

You won't just be "coding"—you'll be defining the technical North Star for our application ecosystem and driving step-function improvements in how we deliver value to thousands of global brands like Zoom, DoorDash, and the MLB.

This is expected to be hybrid in our San Jose or Los Angeles office.

What You'll Do
  • Architecting the Future: You will design and deliver the core platform capabilities that power the next generation of FloQast applications. You'll own the "big picture," ensuring our distributed systems are scalable, resilient, and elegant.
  • Technical Strategy & Excellence: You'll lead the high-level design discussions that resolve complex trade-offs. By establishing rigorous engineering best practices, you raise the floor and the ceiling for our technical standards.
  • Cross-Functional Partnership: You'll act as the bridge between "what's possible" and "what's needed," partnering deeply with Product and Design to translate ambiguous business goals into executable technical roadmaps.
  • Multiplier of Talent: Your success is measured by the growth of those around you. You will mentor senior engineers, fostering a culture of deep technical curiosity and high-performance execution.
What You'll Bring
  • The Veteran's Perspective: 10+ years of experience shipping complex, enterprise-grade software. You've seen systems succeed and fail, and you know how to navigate the lifecycle of a maturing platform.
  • Technical Mastery: You are an expert in modern backend stacks—specifically Go, Node.js, MongoDB, and AWS. You think in terms of APIs, platform-first design, and secure, compliant SaaS architectures.
  • Outcome-Driven Mindset: You possess a strong product intuition. You don't build for the sake of complexity; you build to drive business impact and solve real customer pain points.
  • Navigational Skill: You are comfortable in the "grey areas." You can take a napkin-sketch idea and turn it into a production-ready reality through influence and technical clarity.

This job posting is for our Staff Software Engineer, the base pay range for this position is $164,000 - $246,000. Compensation is not limited to base salary. FloQast values our Total Rewards, and offers a competitive and elaborate Benefits Package including, but not limited to, Medical, Dental, Vision, Family Forming benefits, Life & Disability Insurance, and Unlimited Vacation. FloQast reserves the right to amend, change, alter, and revise pay ranges and benefits offerings at any time. All applicants acknowledge that by applying to this position you understand that this specific pay range is contingent upon meeting the qualifications and requirements of the role, and for the successful completion of the interview selection and process. It is at the Company's discretion to determine what pay is provided to a candidate within the range associated with the role.

FloQast is the leading AI-powered Accounting Transformation Platform, uniquely built by former accountants for accountants. We automate complex, recurring accounting workflows—transforming preparers into strategic reviewers and relieving accountants from tedious manual work. Our cloud-based solution is trusted by over 3,500 world-class accounting teams, including Lululemon, Doordash, and the MLB, to drive collaboration and financial accuracy.
