Job Description

### Software Engineer

**Location:** San Francisco, CA, New York City, NY, or Birmingham, AL (remote
available)

**Type:** Full time

**Dept:** Product & Engineering

**Reports to:** CTO

**Compensation:** $150K - $180K

We believe the future of technology is a conversation, not a click. Linq
builds the infrastructure that lets businesses talk to customers through AI —
in the channels where conversations are already happening: iMessage, RCS, SMS,
and voice.

We're a small team, we ship code every single day, and we're just getting
started.

**The role:**

You'll build product on Linq's messaging platform — the APIs, the interfaces,
the infrastructure underneath. We work across the stack (React/Next.js, Node,
TypeScript, Go) and ship daily. You'll own features end to end, and you'll be
close enough to customers and leadership to understand why you're building
what you're building.

**Apply if you:**

* Have 2+ years of experience building software professionally
* Can work across the stack — you don't have to be an expert everywhere, but you're not afraid of any layer
* Ship clean, functional code and care about getting better at it
* Like working fast without sacrificing quality
* Are comfortable with ambiguity — you don't need a detailed spec to get started

**Nice to haves:**

* Experience with our stack: React/Next.js, Node, TypeScript, Go
* Familiarity with APIs — building them, consuming them, or both
* Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, Heroku, Docker)
* Startup experience — you've worked where priorities shift weekly and you figure things out as you go

**Why Linq:**

* Health/Dental/Vision insurance
* Flexible PTO
* 401(k)
* Wellness stipend, book stipend, professional development opportunities
* Direct access to engineering leadership — we're a small team solving real problems with no layers of bureaucracy between you and the work
* Experience Birmingham, AL — affordable living, incredible food, and a rising tech scene (remote welcome too)
