About this role

The Role

We’re looking for a Senior Engineering Lead to join as a founding member of our engineering team. You’ll help define (Re)vive’s technical foundation, build core systems from the ground up, and ship quickly to validate and learn.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in early-stage environments, enjoys solving ambiguous problems, and wants to make a direct impact on sustainability, retail, and commerce.

What You’ll Do

  • Build & Iterate: Design and deliver MVPs, then refine based on feedback and results.

  • Architect & Scale: Lead development of core back-end/platform systems while contributing to lightweight UI when needed.

  • Collaborate Cross-Functionally: Work closely with Product, Data, and Ops teams to ensure technology aligns with merchant ROI and consumer experience.

  • Shape Engineering Culture: Define best practices, code quality standards, and collaboration norms as one of Revive’s early engineers.

  • Own Systems: Contribute to greenfield builds and re-architect legacy workflows as we scale.

What We’re Looking For

  • 3-7+ years of software engineering experience.

  • Strong back-end development and platform architecture experience (AWS or other cloud environments).

  • Experience building and scaling systems in early-stage or high-growth environments.

  • Familiarity with API-first design and system integrations.

  • Comfort working across the stack, with emphasis on back-end and some UI contribution.

  • Outcome-driven: thrives in ambiguity, balances scrappiness with long-term scalability.

  • Collaborative partner who can operate as both an individual contributor and architectural thought partner.

  • Excitement about productivity tools, AI-forward approaches, and sustainability-driven tech.

Why Join (Re)vive

  • Be part of the founding engineering team, shaping the technical backbone of a category-defining company.

  • Build mission-driven technology at the intersection of sustainability, logistics, and commerce.

  • Work closely with leadership in a fast-paced, collaborative, hybrid Bay Area environment.

  • Competitive compensation with meaningful equity opportunities.

  • The chance to grow your role and career as we scale 5x+ YoY.
