Launch Engineer (TypeScript)

Launch Integrations Engineer (TypeScript)

Employment Type: Full-Time Location Type: Remote Salary: [Salary information not provided]

Position Overview

Welcome to the Launch Team — we’re the technical heartbeat of getting new homes online. When a home signs, we make sure our systems are wired up, integrations are clean, and the magic behind the scenes just works. This isn’t a heads-down coding role — this is fast-paced, high-ownership engineering where you’re shipping daily, debugging across systems, and building tools that help us move faster as a company.

What You’ll Do

You’ll own and build the infrastructure that powers:

• Property Management Software (PMS) integrations (e.g. Track, Streamline, Guesty)
• Listing automation (pulling property data, syncing reservations, publishing listings)
• Cross-functional tools that help ops launch homes with speed and precision

You’ll:

• Write scalable, maintainable TypeScript (Node.js)
• Debug third-party APIs and handle async, flaky, real-world data with grace
• Work closely with our ops, revenue, and product teams to unblock launches
• Build internal dashboards, scripts, or quick tools that reduce time-to-live
• Handle edge cases no one predicted — because 99% of launches aren’t straightforward

Is This You?

• You’re energized by unblocking people — especially in fast-moving ops environments
• You love solving weird API edge cases
• You treat internal tooling with the same care as customer-facing products
• You’re fluent in JavaScript/TypeScript and comfortable working across the stack (even if focused on backend)
• You don’t mind wearing a few hats — launch problems are full-stack by nature

Education & Experience

• 2–5 years experience in software engineering roles, preferably in startups or SaaS
• Proven experience with TypeScript, Node.js, and REST APIs
• Bonus: Experience working with PMS platforms (Guesty, Track, etc.) or third-party integrations
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or equivalent experience

Tech Stack

• Languages: TypeScript (Node.js), some Python
• Data: PostgreSQL, Supabase, JSON APIs
• Infra: Vercel, serverless functions, CRON jobs, GitHub Actions
• Tools: Slack, Notion, Linear, Retool (or similar internal tooling)

Why Join Now?

You’re not just writing code — you’re removing friction, accelerating speed, and shaping how quickly we scale. If you like tight feedback loops, direct access to the users of your tools, and seeing your work immediately impact revenue — this is for you.

Let’s launch. 🚀
