Staff Full-Stack Software Engineer, Social Commerce

The Social Commerce team is building a storefront for game developers to sell directly to their players in Discord. This new initiative has seen early success, and we're expanding it to support more games and platforms. What You'll Be Doing Building cross-platform purchase flows, social gifting experiences, and commerce surfaces that meet users where they already are — in voice, in chat, on mobile. Owning projects end-to-end: scoping, designing, building, shipping, and iterating based on experiment results. You'll run A/B tests, read the data, and make the call on what to do next. Working directly with game studio partners to understand their needs, answer technical questions, and improve the tools we build for them. Collaborating closely with product, design, and game developers to cut through ambiguity on a product where the playbook is still being written. Partnering with other product teams to design shared commerce primitives that work across Discord. Raising the bar for the engineers around you through code review, technical design input, and leading by example on quality and ownership. What you should have 8+ years of experience as a software engineer, including experience leading cross-functional projects as an individual contributor. Strong expertise in at least a couple of the major parts of our stack: Python and TypeScript/React. You're comfortable switching between stacks and have a track record of picking up new ones quickly. A product sense that goes beyond implementation. You'll be collaborating with PMs and designers daily, and we need someone who can push back, suggest alternatives, and help shape what we build. Comfort with ambiguity and experimentation. This team ships A/B tests, reads results, and changes direction. You should be someone who thrives in that environment rather than waiting for a fully-baked spec. A bias toward solving problems from first principles. You learn from what didn't work and help the team do the same. Bonus Points Experience with React Native for mobile development. Experience with game development or game platform ecosystems. Experience with cloud infrastructure (GCP, AWS, or Azure) for production backend systems.
