About the role
We're looking for a Software Engineer to join the Platform team within Superhuman Docs. This is an opportunity to work on and grow into a technical leadership role on the foundation that powers every table, grid, and view on the platform.
What they're looking for
- 8+ years of industry experience and at least 5 of those working on relevant technologies
- Understands the tradeoffs in data layout, serialization formats, and access patterns at a level that goes beyond API usage — you've made decisions about how data is actually stored and retrieved under the hood
- Has shipped and operated storage-layer systems where correctness under concurrency is non-negotiable — you understand read/write ordering, invalidation hazards, and what "consistent" actually means in a distributed setting
- Understands write-ahead logging, crash recovery, and checkpoint strategies — and the tradeoffs between write amplification, recovery time, and storage overhead when designing for durability
- Brings strong instincts for performance engineering and cost-aware design: profiling storage operations, reasoning about cache behavior, identifying hot paths, and making principled tradeoffs between performance and operational cost at scale
- Can work across a large, complex system — the tables layer touches the sync engine, the formula runtime, the client-side rendering layer, and external APIs, you're comfortable reasoning about correctness and performance across those boundaries
