Staff Software Engineer at Checkr

This role is designed for a seasoned engineering leader with over 10 years of experience, specifically a "heavy hitter" in **Python** and **AWS**. While the seniority level is listed as mid-level, the requirements clearly target a Staff-level architect capable of overseeing the high-stakes integration of newly acquired identity verification products. You should be comfortable navigating complex microservices and distributed systems while mentoring junior talent. The position offers a unique chance to work for a high-growth US-based unicorn from **Santiago** on a **hybrid (3 days/week)** basis. The compensation package is robust for the local market, featuring equity (RSUs), a $3,000 USD annual learning stipend, and 100% health coverage for you and your dependents. You’ll also get to solve specialized problems in the identity and security space using modern tech like Kubernetes and Kafka. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Have 10+ years of software experience and are a Python expert. * Are based in Santiago (or willing to relocate) and enjoy a hybrid office culture with provided lunches. * Have a strong architectural background in microservices and REST API design. * Are fluent in English and comfortable collaborating with international teams across time zones.
