Position Overview
We are seeking a collaborative, proactive, and results-driven senior full-stack Software Engineer to join the Studio team at Vibes.
Studio is the newest product offering at Vibes: a self-serve way for far more businesses to provision and launch RCS agents on our messaging services. Having just launched, we are actively gathering customer feedback and have significant room to grow. We move with the speed and ownership of a startup, while drawing on the reach and infrastructure of an established company.
We're looking for a senior engineer to help drive what comes next: someone ready to own a core domain of the product from day one, set the technical bar for how we build, and grow into a technical leadership role as the team scales.
This is a full-time, hybrid role based in the greater Chicago area, with an expectation of being in the office two days per week.
The Role
You will design, build, and own significant parts of the technical foundation of Studio. You'll work across the full stack, developing APIs and building product features, all while shaping the architecture, engineering practices, and product direction.
We think in projects, not tickets, and we start with the what and why before the how. You'll often be the project lead on the work you own, responsible for understanding the deliverable before you start, cutting it down to something shippable, driving it to completion, and releasing it. Engineering weighs in on product decisions early here, so your read on what's feasible and how fast we can ship genuinely shapes what we build.
What Success Looks Like
After 6–12 months, a successful hire:
Owns one or more major areas of the system end-to-end, and is the person the team turns to on them
Ships meaningful functionality to production early and often, and raises the quality bar for the team
Leads projects to completion, from a clear deliverable through the hard technical trade-offs to a deliberate release
Makes sound, high-stakes decisions under ambiguity, and brings the team along on them
Mentors teammates and improves how the whole team works, not just their own output
Is on a clear path toward a technical Lead role as the product and team grow
How We Work
We prioritize ownership, speed, and a relentless focus on the customer
We ship fast and iterate, putting real product in front of customers and improving it with what we learn
We use AI as leverage, and everyone owns what they ship regardless of how it was written
We expect engineers to engage deeply with both product and technology
Everyone owns outcomes, not just code
Responsibilities
Own the design and delivery of full-stack features and services using React and TypeScript on AWS infrastructure
Lead projects end-to-end, owning delivery from kickoff through release
Set the technical direction for major areas of the system, including architecture and key trade-offs
Design and maintain the public API and MCP server that, alongside our web UI, are the primary surfaces customers use to build on Studio
Push the limits of how the team leverages AI to build and ship faster
Mentor engineers through code review, pairing, and technical guidance
Partner closely with product and othe
