About the role
About the role:
Curri is seeking a Staff Software Engineer to join the Technology team as a technical leader who helps set the direction for how we build at scale. You'll operate across many projects at once — reviewing architecture, unblocking teams, and shaping the systems everyone else builds on top of. You'll still write code and ship features yourself, but a growing share of your impact comes from the technical judgment, mentorship, and architectural direction you bring to other engineers' work. Curri runs last-mile logistics for national retailers and industrial suppliers across the US, and this role is central to keeping our systems reliable and scalable as we grow, while raising the technical bar for the whole team.
What you will do:
-
Architect and guide the design of scalable, long-lasting systems, partnering with multiple teams to make sure new work fits into a coherent technical strategy rather than one-off solutions.
-
Lead architecture reviews and design discussions across several projects at once, providing the technical judgment call that individual teams may not have the context or seniority to make alone.
-
Unblock other engineers — jump into gnarly technical problems, debug hard issues, and clear the path when a team is stuck, even on projects you aren't formally leading.
-
Stay hands-on: ship production code yourself on a regular basis, using AI tooling (Claude Code, Cursor, Claude for design and code review) as fluently as anyone on the team, and set the standard for what excellent AI-paired delivery looks like.
-
Mentor engineers at every level, from those building foundational skills to senior engineers growing into technical leadership — you're a multiplier for the people around you, not just the code you personally write.
-
Identify systemic risks and technical debt before they become a crisis, and drive the cross-team investment needed to fix them.
