Job Description

About Alembic

Alembic is a fast-growing software startup focused on building cutting-edge solutions that transform how businesses harness and leverage data. Your work will directly impact how major organizations quantify and optimize their marketing investments.

About the Role

As a Senior Full-Stack Engineer, you'll be a key player in building the technology platform that delivers these insights, working with cutting-edge algorithms and composite AI solutions. You'll have significant influence over our technical direction while collaborating with a team backed by tech luminaries including WndrCo, Jeffrey Katzenberg, Jensen Huang, and Joe Montana. This role offers the perfect balance of technical challenge and business impact in a fast-growing environment where your contributions will be visible from day one.

What You’ll Do

  • Architect, design, and develop full-stack applications, ensuring scalability, security, and performance.

  • Guide technical decision-making and help define Alembic’s engineering best practices.

  • Build and optimize frontend applications using modern frameworks.

  • Develop backend services and APIs using languages like Node.js or Python.

  • Design and manage databases and data-intensive applications.

  • Mentor junior and mid-level engineers, fostering a strong technical culture.

  • Contribute to hiring and shaping the engineering team as we scale.

What Will Help You Succeed

  • 10+ years of experience as a full-stack engineer, with deep expertise in both frontend and backend development.

  • Strong experience with JavaScript/TypeScript and modern frontend frameworks like React.

  • Proficiency in backend development using Node.js, Python, or Go.

  • Experience designing scalable architectures, including microservices, serverless, or event-driven systems.

  • Deep understanding of databases, query optimization, and data modeling (PostgreSQL and Elastic).

  • Experience working with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure) and DevOps tools (Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, CI/CD pipelines).

  • Strong problem-solving skills and ability to navigate ambiguous startup environments.

  • Excellent collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to work cross-functionally.

Nice-to-Haves:

  • Experience in AI/ML or working with data platforms.

  • Previous experience in high-growth startups.

  • Experience leading teams or projects in a fast-paced environment.

Why you might be excited about Alembic:

  • You want to build something that is both technologically challenging and solves a real customer need. You want a role with major upside that tackles a massive market opportunity.

  • You are a serial startup builder or want to learn more before becoming a founder yourself. Our team holds deep experience building and selling B2B marketing solutions that work.

  • You want to work where you can take a big swing at building something big while maximizing your personal growth.

Why you might not be excited:

  • If you only want to tell people instead of building and coding alongside them — and on your own — then we’re not the environment for you.

  • You prefer company practices with 100% built out process for every little detail.

  • You prefer static over dynamic. Projects, priorities, and roles will adapt to your skill set and your goals. Though we have a playbook for growth, we proudly remain an early stage startup.

Compensation

$179K – $197K • Offers Equity • Multiple Ranges

Our Compensation Philosophy:

  • Market-based: Our formula ensures new hires earn at or above current 50th percentile cash compensation benchmarks. 

  • Ownership: Our generous equity program ensures new hires are owners, not just employees.

  • Transparent: We openly discuss salary expectations to avoid surprises later in the process. 

  • Data-driven: We use objective data to remove bias and ensure consistency in compensation decisions.
