Software Engineer - Dice

Denver, CO; Des Moines, IA; Field

This Is the Place to Be:
Connecting Futures Now! DHI Group, Inc. is the parent company of career marketplaces, Dice and ClearanceJobs. We connect candidates with career advice, resources and ultimately a dream job. At DHI, we’ve built a workplace where great people do meaningful work. This is the place to be, and we want you here with us.

You Belong Here:
Join a mission-driven company that puts its people first. We’re a collaborative, supportive team that lives by our “One Team” value – working together and winning together. Voted as a certified Great Place to Work®, our team members feel their opinions count and are cared for by DHI. 92% of employees say DHI is a Great Place to Work – 35% higher than the average U.S. company.  We’ve built a culture grounded in collaboration, growth, and giving back through volunteering and employee resource groups. Come be part of something worth showing up for!

About the role:

We’re rebuilding the candidate and recruiter experience at the core of Dice: the end-to-end journey a job seeker takes to find their next role, and the way recruiters and employers find and connect with them. As a Software Engineer, you’ll build and ship features in a modern, cloud-native stack that reaches thousands of job seekers and recruiters, and you’ll grow on a team that treats AI as a core part of how we build, not a side experiment. You’ll own meaningful pieces of work, deepen your craft, and grow toward broader technical ownership, with the support of senior engineers and a clear path forward. You’ll work closely with Product, Design, and Data to turn real candidate and recruiter problems into shipped outcomes.

If that sounds like your kind of work, but you see yourself at the senior level, apply anyway. We’re hiring across levels and calibrate level at offer.

About the team:

We believe an exceptional candidate and recruiter experience is what makes our platform win, and we’re building the next generation of it across a modern full-stack environment. We value engineers who are curious, collaborative, and want their work to matter for the people using it.

AI-native:

  • We start with AI. The engineers who thrive here keep asking “why are we still doing this by hand?” and then automate it, with real autonomy and leadership backing.
  • AI amplifies engineers; it doesn’t replace their judgment. The hard parts stay human (thoughtful design, holistic product thinking, sound principles, strong fundamentals), so we hire for those first.
  • We use AI agents across the lifecycle: writing and reviewing code, generating tests, triaging dependencies, and building internal tooling.

In the short term, you will:

  • Ramp up on our systems. Learn our applications, services, tooling, and infrastructure, and how your team’s work fits the broader product.
  • Take ownership of your work. Own features end to end with guidance, give and receive code reviews, and contribute to design discussions as you build context.
  • Collaborate and align. Work with engineers, PMs, designers, and stakeholders to deliver incremental value and find your rhythm in the team’s planning and execution.

In the long term, you will:

  • Grow your technical depth. Take on larger and more ambiguous problems, deepen your ownership of systems, and raise your standards for quality, including how you apply AI across the workflow.
  • Grow toward leadership. Build the judgment, communication, and influence that lead to senior-level scope: mentoring others, shaping design, and driving decisions. We invest in getting you there.
  • Deliver meaningful business impact. Ship product features (increasingly AI-powered) that improve the candidate and recruiter experience and move business goals.

What you’ll need (must-haves):

  • Solid experience building production applications with Node.js and TypeScript
  • Experience building RESTful and/or GraphQL services, and working with modern front-end frameworks (React, Next.js)
  • Experience working with applications on AWS (or another major cloud), and exposure to CI/CD and containers (Docker, Fargate, Kubernetes)
  • Exposure to automated testing (e.g., Playwright) and a quality-minded approach to your work
  • AI-native ways of working: you already use AI coding agents as a core part of how you build, going beyond a chat assistant, and you look for ways to automate repetitive work
  • A growth mindset: you navigate ambiguity with support, learn fast, take feedback well, and are eager to grow toward senior-level ownership

Bonus points (preferred, not required):

  • Any hands-on experience or curiosity applying LLM tooling (e.g., LiteLLM) to practical data problems like enriching or classifying content
  • Exposure to integrating third-party systems via APIs (e.g., ATS platforms) or working with data ingestion pipelines
  • Working knowledge of Python and/or Java
  • Data modeling and database skills (PostgreSQL or other relational/NoSQL stores): schema design, writing efficient queries, and migrations
  • Exposure to modernizing or migrating legacy systems onto newer stacks
  • Distributed, event-driven systems (e.g., SNS/SQS, Lambda, or similar messaging and streaming)
  • Logging and observability basics, performance tuning, or cost awareness in cloud-native environments
  • Experience with scalable SaaS applications, and familiarity with OOP and functional paradigms

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

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. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

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.
