Software Engineer III, Rating at Shippo

**Who this is for** This role is designed for a backend-focused engineer with at least 6 years of experience who enjoys working on high-throughput, low-latency systems. You should be proficient in Python or Golang and comfortable managing complex API integrations and data pipelines that handle millions of daily requests. **Key highlights** Shippo offers a strong remote-first culture with a high level of transparency; they even specify that they typically anchor offers at the $157k midpoint. The "Shippo Package" is robust, featuring 90% employer-covered healthcare, a "take-as-much-as-you-need" vacation policy, a home office stipend, and dedicated funds for professional development and coaching. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Have professional experience scaling microservices in a production environment using Go or Python. * Enjoy the challenge of optimizing APIs for performance and accuracy across global carrier networks (USPS, FedEx, UPS). * Prefer a "remote-anywhere" culture that still prioritizes team connection through off-sites and local gatherings. * Are comfortable participating in an on-call rotation and taking ownership of system health and observability.
