Senior Software Engineer

Remote - USA

Who is Boulevard?

Boulevard provides the first and only client experience platform for appointment-based, self-care businesses. We empower our customers to give their clients more of the magical moments that matter most.

Before launching in 2016, our founders spent months interviewing salon managers and working behind front desks to understand their pain points so we could design a modern, user-friendly platform that meets the unique needs of their business. Our roots may be in hair salons, but we are built for the broader self-care industry, including many types of salons, spas, medspa, barbershops, and more. Our technology not only helps our customers survive but thrive. Take a look at how we (and YOU) can make that happen. 

We have an insatiable curiosity and embrace experimentation. We believe that simple solutions require the most sophistication, and we design each and every detail to maximize potential, power, and impact. Do our values match? Read through our story and what we value the most.

Our team values and celebrates our diverse backgrounds. Being open about who we are and what we do allows us to do the best work of our lives. We believe in equal opportunity for all, and you should too.

Come do the best work of your life at Boulevard.

Boulevard is looking for a product-minded Senior Software Engineer I to build experiences and systems that power appointment-based businesses and the professionals and clients who rely on them every day. You'll work closely with Product, Design, and Engineering to solve meaningful customer problems, taking ownership of technical solutions from design through production.

Our engineers work across a modern, event-driven platform with opportunities to specialize in frontend, backend, or work across the stack. We value strong engineering fundamentals over experience with any specific technology. Our backend is built with Elixir and PostgreSQL on AWS; our frontends use React and TypeScript; and GraphQL connects experiences across the platform. Prior Elixir experience is not required—we'll teach you.

We believe engineers who master AI tools will define the next decade of software, and we want Boulevard to be where you do that. Coding agents like Claude Code are in daily use across our team, and we expect you to use them to move faster on the routine work so your energy goes to design, quality, and the problems that actually require you. What stays constant is ownership: you're accountable for what ships, however it was written.

What you'll do here:

  • Own meaningful product and technical initiatives from design and scoping through implementation, launch, and iteration.
  • Build reliable, maintainable systems that power experiences including real-time scheduling, client booking, marketing automation, and the tools professionals use to run their businesses.
  • Partner closely with Product and Design to understand customer problems, evaluate tradeoffs, and develop thoughtful technical solutions.
  • Contribute to technical design and architecture in your area while balancing scalability, maintainability, performance, and delivery speed.
  • Build across our platform based on your area of expertise, whether that's React and TypeScript on the frontend, backend services and event-driven systems, or end-to-end product development.
  • Own the quality of what you ship through testing, code review, observability, and ongoing production support.
  • Collaborate with and mentor other engineers through code reviews, technical discussions, and knowledge sharing.
  • Continuously improve how we build and ship software, including thoughtful use of AI-assisted development tools.

What you'll need to thrive:

  • Experience: 5+ years of professional software engineering experience building and operating production applications.
  • Technical fundamentals: Strong software engineering fundamentals and the ability to design clean, maintainable solutions to complex problems.
  • Ownership: A track record of independently taking meaningful features or technical initiatives from definition through production.
  • Product mindset: Experience partnering closely with Product and Design to understand customer needs and turn them into effective technical solutions.
  • Systems thinking: A habit of solving the class of problem, not just the instance in front of you. When you're asked for a feature, you recognize when it's the first of many and build the pattern the next engineer can extend, rather than another one-off.
  • Technical judgment: Ability to evaluate tradeoffs, make sound engineering decisions, and communicate the reasoning behind them.
  • Collaboration: A history of working effectively with engineers and cross-functional partners and contributing to the growth of those around you.
  • Curiosity: An eagerness to learn unfamiliar technologies and solve new problems. You do not need prior experience with Elixir or every technology in our stack.

Our tech stack

  • Backend: Elixir and PostgreSQL running on AWS. Our platform is event-driven, built on EventBridge, SQS, and Oban to power everything from real-time scheduling to marketing automation. Prior Elixir experience is not required—we'll teach you.
  • API: GraphQL, with TypeScript types generated from the schema across our frontends.
  • Frontend: React and TypeScript across our business dashboard, client booking experience, and independently shipped micro-frontends, with a shared component library. Our mobile app for professionals is built with React Native.
  • Tooling: Infrastructure as code with Terraform, continuous deployment, Datadog for observability, Snowflake for analytics, and AI coding agents like Claude Code in daily use.

You don't need experience with all of this to apply. Curiosity and strong fundamentals matter more to us than any specific tool.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
