About DASTAN

We are seeking a Software Engineer who can take full ownership of features and deliver high-quality, maintainable solutions within a flexible squad structure. You’ll work closely with product, design, and fellow engineers to bring technical insight to the planning process, and ensure that what we ship is performant, scalable, and impactful.

Job Description

Software Engineers independently own feature development and contribute to planning, code quality, and team productivity within flexible squads. Squads are assembled dynamically based on project needs, availability, and best fit for the work. Engineers in this role are expected to understand service boundaries and design features that align with a microservices architecture.

Responsibilities
  • Feature Development: Own and implement scalable, maintainable features aligned with the squad’s roadmap and technical direction.
  • Squad Participation: Actively engage in squad planning, retrospectives, demos, and async updates to ensure transparency and delivery.
  • Code Quality Assurance: Write and review high-quality code and tests that align with team standards and CI/CD requirements.
  • Requirement Analysis: Work closely with Squad Leads, Product Partners, and Senior Engineers to translate business needs into actionable tasks.
  • Version Control: Use Git and structured workflows for effective collaboration, review, and delivery.
  • Performance Optimization: Identify and resolve performance issues across features or services to ensure responsive, stable systems.
  • Infrastructure Management: Own deployment and operational infrastructure (Kubernetes, Azure, Cloudflare Workers), driving reliability, scalability, and cost-efficiency across services.
  • Documentation: Maintain clear, useful documentation on decisions, systems, and workflows to ensure visibility and continuity.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Coordinate with QA, Design, and Product to ship features that are user-centered and technically sound.
  • Microservices Contribution: Design and deliver features with an understanding of distributed systems, service ownership, and cross-service communication.
  • Communication: Communicate proactively and clearly in written updates, planning sessions, and code reviews. Ask thoughtful questions and help clarify requirements and blockers.
  • Mentorship: Support junior engineers through pairing, feedback, and sharing of technical context.
  • Review and Present: Participate in squad demos, share what you’ve built, and incorporate feedback from stakeholders.
Requirements
  • 2–5 years of professional software development experience
  • Strong knowledge of JavaScript/TypeScript
  • Familiarity with smart contract development and Web3 SDKs
  • Working knowledge of relational databases such as Postgres
  • Proficiency in Git and GitHub workflows
  • Experience building and consuming APIs
  • Ability to independently deliver features and collaborate in dynamic, asynchronous teams
  • Strong communication and documentation skills
  • Up-to-date experience with AI-supported workflows
Nice to have
  • Experience with web frameworks (e.g., React, Remix, Next.js) and build tools (e.g., Vite).
  • Experience implementing design systems and reusable UI components.
  • Ability to translate designs (e.g., from Figma) into well-structured HTML using modern styling tools like Tailwind CSS.
  • Understanding of server-side rendering (SSR).
  • Understanding of cloud environments and containerized deployment (e.g. Kubernetes)
  • Familiarity with prediction markets concepts.
  • Familiarity with container orchestration and cloud/edge platforms (e.g., Kubernetes, Azure, Cloudflare Workers).
  • Experience with agentic development workflows and AI coding tools (e.g., Claude Code) to accelerate development and automate routine engineering tasks.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
