Staff Software Engineer

Steadily

Location: Austin, TX
Employment Type: Full-time, In-Office
Department: Engineering
Salary: Top of market salary + equity

We're hiring a Staff Software Engineer with experience building web applications and service oriented architecture to help us build the core of our stack. This is a full-time, in-office position based in Austin, TX .

As a Staff Software Engineer you will:
  • Build an experience for people to buy insurance that is so simple and intuitive your least-tech savvy relative could use it without help, regardless of device or platform.
  • Create a way for customers to document damage, making the claims process smarter and easier-no matter how they access our services.
  • Design rating engines for calculating how much an insurance policy should cost
  • Combine property intelligence APIs sources to flag flood, fire, and vandalism risks
What we're looking for:
  • Experienced: This isn't your first rodeo. There's no specific minimum number of years requirement, but we expect you to be able to dive into a complex codebase without too much spin-up. Past experience as a team lead is definitely a plus.
  • Builder: You like the product-side of engineering and have thoughtful opinions on what the user experience should be. You're not the type of engineer who wants a fully-fleshed out spec thrown over the wall for you to code.
  • Pragmatic: We prioritize impact and delivery. You balance speed and quality, making thoughtful trade-offs to solve problems effectively. You leverage off-the-shelf solutions so we don't re-invent the wheel but understand when a custom solution is appropriate. You'll be deploying code to production within hours of starting and working with us to iteratively build solutions.
  • Specific languages: We don't really care if you've worked in our stack before as long as you're happy to learn it. If you're sharp enough to be on this team, you're sharp enough to learn any language or framework quickly.
Our Stack and Tools:
  • Python 3 / Kotlin
  • Typescript
  • React (Next.js)
  • Django / FastAPI
  • Postgres
  • Kafka (we build on an event driven architecture)
  • AWS (EKS)
  • Github Actions with a full CI/CD Pipeline
Compensation and Benefits:
  • Compensation: Top of market salary + equity
  • Time Off : 3 weeks PTO + 6 federal holidays
  • Insurance : Medical, dental, vision, life, disability, HSA, FSA
  • Retirement : 401(k)
  • Perks : Free snacks, team lunches, collaborative office culture
Location:
  • Austin, TX

    Steadily is building a workplace environment of team members who are passionate and excited to be together in person. Our office is in central Austin, and is key to our fast-paced growth trajectory.
Why Join Steadily
  • Good company. Our founders have three successful startups under their belt and have recruited a stellar team to match.
  • Top compensation . We pay at the top of the Kansas City market (see comp).
  • Growth opportunity : We're an early-stage, fast-growing company where you'll wear a lot of hats and shape product decisions.
  • Strong backing . We're growing fast, we manage over $20 billion in risk, and we're exceptionally well-funded.
  • Culture : Steadily boasts a very unique culture that our teammates love. We call it like we see it and we're nothing if not candid. Plus, we love to have a good time. Check out our culture deck to learn what we're all about.
  • Awards : We've been recognized both locally and nationally as a top place to work. Recently we were ranked 16th on Forbes' 2026 Best Startup Employers list, and 63rd on the prestigious Inc 5000 Fastest Growing Companies list. We've also been recognized as one of the Best Landlord Insurance Companies in 2026 by CNBC, a Top 2025 Startup in Newsweek, in Investopedia's Best Landlord Insurance Companies, and we won Austin Business Journal's Best Places to Work in 2025.

We're excited to meet you!
