Forward Deployed Engineer

🏢 Summary: Senior Software Engineer role focused on scaling architecture and evolving a single-team system into a robust multi-team, distributed environment. The position partners with technical leadership to drive architectural strategy, improve CI/CD and developer experience, and embed pragmatic security into the development lifecycle. It emphasizes high ownership from design to production in a growing engineering organization. 🗂️ Requirements: Expert-level JVM knowledge, Strong Kotlin proficiency, Experience designing distributed systems, Proven experience with systems architecture, Hands-on experience with CI/CD implementation, Experience integrating security into SDLC, Ability to lead technical initiatives end-to-end, Experience scaling engineering teams and architecture 📃 Skills: JVM, Kotlin, CI/CD, SSDLC, TSP, DistributedSystems, Architecture, Automation 🏢 Description: Senior Software Engineer (Scale & Architecture) Authologic is at an exciting inflection point. We are evolving from a tight-knit team of 12 into a scalable engineering organization. We don’t need a "General" to command people; we need a Technical Partner who leads by example and expertise. You will work directly with our CTO and Head of R&D to provide the architectural "fuel" needed for our next stage of growth. This isn't about climbing a ladder—it’s about having a seat at the table where technical strategy is shaped and taking real ownership of how we scale. Your Impact: Scaling the Engine: Lead the transition from a single-team flow to a multi-team architecture (decoupling, CI/CD evolution, and improving Developer Experience). High-Agency Ownership: You identify systemic bottlenecks before they become problems. You lead initiatives from technical design to production, ensuring we build for the future without losing speed. Pragmatic Security (SSDLC): Help us navigate compliance and certifications (like TSP) by building security into the DNA of our development process—focusing on smart automation, not bureaucracy. Collaborative Design: Act as a sounding board for the product team. You help shape features by balancing user needs with technical sustainability. What You Bring Expert JVM / Kotlin foundations: You are a seasoned engineer who understands the internals of the JVM. While we use Kotlin, your ability to master the ecosystem is what matters most. Systems Architecture: You have a track record of designing distributed systems that are both robust and easy to maintain. Low Ego, High Impact: You prioritize the best solution over being "right." You communicate complex technical trade-offs clearly to both engineers and business stakeholders. Experience with Growth: Ideally, you’ve seen an organization grow from a dozen to 50+ engineers and you know where the architectural "potholes" are hidden. What we offer Base salary + participation in the Authologic Inc. Employee Stock Option Program. Remote-first culture with access to co-working spaces (we’re a remote organization, but we meet occasionally in the office and during our quarterly off-sites). Good start-up vibes, ability to work with ambitious people, and access to the YC network via Authologic founders. We give you a lot of space and autonomy to take action – just tell us what you need!

We eliminate onboarding friction for global businesses, transforming complex verification flows into elegant, secure, and user-friendly digital experiences. About the Role We are looking for a rare breed: a solid Design Engineer who loves clean, robust code, but also possesses exceptional taste, style, and an eye for beautiful user interfaces. We know this combination isn't common. Usually, you're either an engineer or a designer. We need a Design Engineer who bridges that gap—someone who understands that a button's logic and data flow are just as important as how it scales, moves, and feels to the user. Since you will have a direct impact on our product's success, we want you to have skin in the game through our RSUs program . What we look for (Beyond the code) Product Thinking: You don't just implement tasks from a Jira board. You understand why we are building a feature, how it impacts the user, and you proactively suggest better UX solutions. Communicativeness: You can articulate your tech choices clearly and collaborate openly with both designers and backend peers in English and Polish. Autonomy & Async Vibe: Working remotely means we trust you. You can articulate your tech and design choices clearly, documenting them or sharing quick ideas with the team asynchronously. Conscientiousness & Craftsmanship: You take pride in your work. Diligence, attention to detail, and a high standard for pixels, performance, and smooth layouts are part of your DNA. Your Technical Arsenal Must-Have Skills: Solid experience (or strong architectural understanding) of BDUI / SDUI (Backend-Driven / Server-Driven User Interface). Strong command of Vue.js and TypeScript . Deep understanding of TailwindCSS and semantic HTML . Experience with PrimeVue (or similar modern UI Kits). Languages: Professional fluency in both English and Polish is strictly required. Nice-to-Have: A knack for microinteractions & animations (GSAP, Motion, or CSS transitions) – the magic that makes an app feel alive. What we offer: Base salary + participation in the Authologic Inc. Employee Stock Option Program. Remote-first culture with access to co-working spaces (we’re a remote organization, but we meet occasionally in the office and during our quarterly off-sites). No Corporate BS: Direct impact on the product, flat structure, and quick decision-making. What the process looks like We value practical skills and direct communication. During the interview, we won't roast you on theoretical trivia. Instead, you'll jump to play.tailwindcss.com and just jam/code live with one of our founders to see how we think and work together. How to Apply Show us your craft. Send us a link to your portfolio or projects where your engineering skills and design taste shine brightest.
