Senior Software Engineer, Verifications at Checkr

This role is ideal for a seasoned backend engineer with at least 6 years of experience who excels in Ruby, Golang, or TypeScript. You should have a strong grasp of systems architecture and a "product-minded" approach to engineering—meaning you enjoy partnering with product teams to balance rapid feature delivery with long-term system reliability. Because this team handles core products like employment and health screenings, experience with complex domain modeling and data-heavy platform capabilities is a major plus. The compensation is highly competitive, reaching up to $218k for the San Francisco hub. Checkr offers a robust benefits package, including 100% covered health premiums, a $25k family planning reimbursement, and a monthly wellness stipend. While the role follows a hybrid model (3 days in-office), the perks are substantial, featuring daily catered lunches and a commitment to career advancement within a proven, Y Combinator-backed "breakthrough" company. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Have deep expertise in backend infrastructure and relational/non-relational databases. * Enjoy mentoring other engineers and participating in high-level technical design reviews. * Are comfortable with an on-call rotation to ensure the reliability of mission-critical services. * Thrive in a "bias-for-action" environment where you take full ownership of the development lifecycle.
