20 Zillow Senior Full Stack Developer Jobs Hiring Near You

About the team
The Metro team works on the systems that shape how customers connect with real estate agents on Zillow. We build tools that real estate professionals rely on to run their business, along with systems that product teams use to shape customer experiences across the home buying and selling journey.
Our work directly affects how customers find the right support, how agents grow their business, and how quickly we can test and improve new ideas. Engineers on this team work closely with product managers, designers, and data partners with opportunities to help define problems, shape solutions, and influence what gets built.
We expect engineers on this team to help shape the work, not just implement it.
About the role
This is not a standard Senior Software Development Engineer role. On the Metro team, you'll build the systems behind how Zillow customers find help, schedule tours, and connect with agents. We're looking for engineers who can turn ambiguous problems into shipped, measurable, and reliable products.
You Will Work On

• The problem, not just the ticket. You will take loosely defined ideas and turn them into clear plans with tradeoffs, edge cases, success metrics, and a path to production.
• The solution, with partners. You will work closely with product managers, designers, data partners, and other engineers to shape solutions, challenge assumptions, and improve the customer experience.
• Tools and workflows. You will build systems that real estate professionals and internal product teams rely on to manage experiences, test ideas, and support customers throughout their journey.
• The build, across the stack. You will go where the problem lives: user experience, services, APIs, data models, instrumentation, and operational workflows.
• The launch. You will ship with the right testing strategy, rollout plan, monitoring, and safeguards for the level of risk.
• The outcome. You will follow your work into production, learn from customer behavior and metrics, and continue improving what you build over time.
• The team around you. You will raise the bar through code reviews, technical discussions, mentoring, and the standards you set in day-to-day work.
