About the Role

Litify is looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Engineering team! Your main focus will be to write clean and scalable code to run on AWS services (e.g. Lambda, Fargate). You’ll own the AWS portion of a project that integrates heavily with Salesforce — including refactoring existing Salesforce processes as part of that integration. Prior Salesforce experience isn’t required — but a genuine willingness to learn the platform and work on Salesforce projects is. You will assist with the design, analysis, development, implementation, and deployment of new data-driven applications. The ideal candidate has the ability to function in an agile software development lifecycle and will thrive in a hands-on, focused, productive and team-oriented environment.

In this role, you will:

  • Write scalable and maintainable Javascript for AWS services (e.g. Lambda, Fargate)
  • Design, develop and monitor RESTful APIs
  • Design cost effective and efficient services for storing and processing high volumes of structured data with thousands of records
  • Create clean and organized infrastructure-as-code templates (e.g. CloudFormation) and deploy stacks across environments
  • Manage the security and organization of data in S3
  • Build the AWS side of integrations with our Salesforce platform, and refactor Salesforce processes (LWC, Apex) as part of that work
  • Work closely with Product Managers for scoping and roadmap discussions
  • Contribute to project documentation and knowledge bases

To be successful in this role, you have (required):

  • 7+ years of experience with a backend programming language (preferably Node.js)
  • 4+ years experience working in a cloud environment (preferably AWS)
  • A willingness to work on Salesforce projects and learn the Salesforce platform (LWC, Apex)
  • Experience with AI code assistance tooling such as Github Co-pilot, Claude Code, etc.
  • A drive to continue to improve your skillset and take on more challenging projects
  • A willingness to help educate and grow teammates
  • An ability to effectively communicate with peers in Engineering and Product

Nice-to-have:

  • Prior experience developing on Salesforce (LWC, Apex, general security practices)
  • Serverless architecture on AWS (API Gateway, Lambda, DynamoDB, S3)
  • AWS certifications, especially “AWS Certified Developer - Associate”
  • Salesforce certifications
  • 3+ years of Node.js experience
  • CI/CD experience
  • Multi-account AWS account architecture
  • AWS CDK and CloudFormation experience
  • Networking or cybersecurity experience

Disclosure:

The estimated base salary pay range for this role is $140,000-160,000. You may also be offered a bonus and benefits.

Our salary ranges are based on paying competitively for our size and industry, and are one part of many compensation, benefits and other reward opportunities we provide.

Individual pay rate decisions are based on a number of factors, including qualifications for the role, experience level, skill set, and balancing internal equity relative to peers at the company.

The range above is for the expectations as laid out in the job description, however we are often open to a wide variety of profiles, and recognize that the person we hire may be less experienced (or more senior) than this job description as posted. If that ends up being the case, the updated salary range will be communicated to you as a candidate.

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1

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.
