We’re hiring a Senior Software Engineer in Austin to own a mission-critical document-rendering microservice, written in Go and backed by Postgres, that turns templates, reports, and exports into reliable, lightning-fast delivery at serious scale. You’ll take a Rails monolith and break it into something clean, modular, and a joy to work in, setting the patterns and standards the whole team builds on, and ship work that people across the company (and our customers) notice. If you get a kick out of elegant solutions to gnarly problems, you’ll fit right in. As a Senior Software Engineer, you will provide hands-on engineering to design and maintain this high-performance codebase using Golang and a Postgres backend. You’ll partner closely with cross-functional teams—including engineering, product, architecture, and infrastructure—to gather requirements, ensure system reliability, and deliver customer-centric solutions with measurable business impact. You will influence technical direction, uphold code quality, and accelerate Procore’s ability to deliver a world-class file services platform at extreme scale. This position reports to a Software Engineering Manager and is a 2 days per week hybrid role in our Austin, TX office. **What you’ll do:** - Architect, design, and build a scalable, high-performance microservice for document rendering using Golang and Postgres. - Evolve our existing codebase from a monolithic Ruby on Rails application into a modular system with clear, well-enforced domain boundaries and a coherent public interface - Define domain boundaries, architectural patterns, and standards that improve reliability, maintainability, and development velocity. - Drive system-level improvements in performance, resilience, observability, and cost efficiency. - Establish and uphold engineering best practices, including testing strategies (TDD), code reviews, instrumentation, and comprehensive documentation. - Troubleshoot, debug, and lead root cause analysis for complex issues to implement effective, long-term solutions. - Act as a technical collaborator and mentor, providing constructive feedback to peers to maintain code quality and enable the team to deliver autonomously. - Partner with infrastructure, platform, and DevOps teams to define standards for deployment, CI/CD, monitoring, and reliability automation. **What we're looking for:** - Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent experience. - 2+ years of professional experience in Object-Oriented Programming, with deep expertise in Go, Ruby on Rails and Postgres. - Solid understanding of microservices architecture, Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA), and best practices for building scalable web applications. - Experience designing and operating systems on cloud infrastructure (preferably AWS), with an emphasis on reliability and observability. - Experience with containerization technologies such as Docker and Kubernetes as well as experience programming in Ruby on Rails is a strong plus. - Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to understand tradeoffs, balancing immediate needs with long-term strategic initiatives. - Excellent communication skills with a proven ability to document and bring team clarity to complex technical solutions. - Curiosity, drive, and customer-focus—you love solving real problems with elegant solutions. # **Additional Information** **Base Pay Range:** 140,960.00 - 193,820.00 USD Annual This role may also be eligible for Equity Compensation and/or Bonus Incentive Compensation.
