What You’ll Do
As a Lead Software Engineer at Kestra, you’ll get to:
You’ll be working in an environment where speed and agility are key, and where delivering value to our customers is always the top priority.
We embrace modern development tools, including AI assistants and coding agents, and we encourage engineers to leverage them to move faster, explore ideas, and improve productivity. We provide access to leading AI models and tools when needed so you can use them effectively in your daily work.
That said, we strongly believe great engineers must fully understand what they build. This means mastering the business context, the architecture, performance considerations, security implications, and quality standards of the code being produced. You should be comfortable reviewing, validating, and improving AI-generated code, and ultimately take ownership of the entire lifecycle from understanding the problem and designing the solution, to implementation, testing, and delivery. AI can accelerate the work, but responsibility, critical thinking, and technical judgment always remain with the engineer.
Our Tech Stack
We work with a variety of modern technologies, and you’ll get the opportunity to explore new tools and approaches as we grow.
