I'm Laura Schmidlein, Manager, Engineering at Teamworks. Our Nutrition platform supports dietitians and athletes with personalized meal planning and performance insights, and it's growing fast — including expansion into APAC and EU markets. I'm looking for a Staff Engineer who can lead the technical direction of this platform, raise the bar for the team, and drive cross-platform initiatives that connect Nutrition with the broader Teamworks ecosystem.
This is a small, focused team where your influence will be felt across the organization. You'll be shaping architectural decisions, mentoring engineers, and owning some of the most complex work we have in front of us.
The RoleLead architectural direction for large-scale features across our web and mobile applications built with TypeScript, React, React Native, and Node.js

Drive cross-platform projects that require system-level thinking and collaboration across multiple Teamworks teams
Improve reliability, scalability, security, and developer experience by identifying and prioritizing meaningful technical debt
Mentor engineers through pairing, code reviews, and hands-on collaboration to raise overall team capability
Partner closely with Product and cross-functional stakeholders to clarify requirements, challenge assumptions, and influence technical strategy
8+ years of software engineering experience building production applications using TypeScript, React, React Native, and Node.js across both frontend and backend systems
Proven track record of leading architectural decisions and delivering complex full-stack features at scale
Strong system design skills with experience designing distributed systems and cross-system integrations
Experience operating in cloud environments (AWS) with solid understanding of infrastructure as code (Terraform) and modern CI/CD practices
Demonstrated ability to mentor and elevate engineers, improving team-wide technical quality and decision-making
Strong collaboration skills with experience influencing cross-functional teams and driving alignment
You have experience implementing microfrontend patterns such as module federation or shared component architectures
You have strong knowledge of PostgreSQL, data modeling, and API paradigms (REST and/or GraphQL)

Nutrition is a growing product with real complexity ahead — new markets, new integrations, and a platform that needs to scale alongside an expanding user base. The Staff Engineer on this team will have genuine architectural ownership, a direct line to product strategy, and the opportunity to shape how we build for years to come.
