Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer

Long Beach, California, United States

Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer

Aevum is an American technology company that designs, develops, and provides autonomous air, space, and package transportation technologies. The company focuses on autonomous technologies, rapid logistics, e-commerce, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence.
 
We are an early-stage aerospace logistics company looking for a bright and motivated Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer to join our team. You will work closely with our Chief Software Architect (12+ years of Silicon Valley experience) to design and build the core frameworks and architecture that power our operations. This role is for someone with around 4-7 years of experience, though we value the quality of experience over the number of years.  

What You’ll Do

  • Work closely with the Chief Software Architect to build the core frameworks and architecture that will power the company's operations, with a particular focus on the prototyping and proof-of-concept phase of development 
  • Develop and maintain web applications, internal tools, and backend systems that are scalable, maintainable, and future-proof 
  • Contribute to defining and evolving our software architecture, with an emphasis on flexibility and long-term sustainability while meeting immediate needs 
  • Collaborate on setting best practices for code quality, testing, and deployment, ensuring we build on a strong foundation as we scale 
  • Tackle a wide range of core company problems, gaining a close-up view of key challenges and helping to shape the direction of the company's technical solutions through clean, efficient, and reliable code 
  • Work across the full stack, iterating quickly to turn early-stage concepts into functional, production-ready solutions  

What We’re Looking For

  • Strong generalist software engineering skills, with a solid understanding of data structures, algorithms, and software design principles 
  • Ability to work across the stack (front-end, back-end, with at least some experience with infrastructure and security)
  • A preference for libraries and frameworks with powerful primitives over "magical" solutions (e.g., SolidStart or Remix over Next.js, FastAPI or Flask over Django or Rails) 
  • Ability to write code quickly and efficiently—whether through proficiency with AI coding assistants or sufficient manual speed—since we have many projects in the prototyping and proof-of-concept stage
  • Willingness to learn and adapt to new technologies as needed 
  • Ability to take ownership of projects and work independently while collaborating closely with the team 
  • Experience with Python and JavaScript
  • This role will involve little to no low-level or embedded programming, though some experience there could be useful for integrations  

Preferred

  • Experience with SolidJS (preferred) or other modern frontend frameworks 
  • Familiarity with cloud infrastructure, databases, or DevOps practices 
  • Interest in aerospace, logistics, or operations research 
  • Basic product and design sensibilities, with an ability to think about user experience and intuitive workflows
