ABOUT THE ROLE We're seeking a motivated Staff Software Engineer to join our Luxury team at Lyft, where you'll have the opportunity to build rich and creative features that set the standard for the ride-sharing industry. As a critical technical leader, you'll take ownership of complex systems, define strategic roadmaps, and drive cross-functional alignment to improve the luxury experience. WHAT YOU'LL DO As a Staff Software Engineer, you'll be responsible for shaping the long-term architecture for full-stack systems, taking accountability for both short-term functionality and long-term health. You'll translate high-level business goals into actionable engineering projects, own the technical roadmap from conception to delivery, and manage cross-team dependencies and mitigate risks.

WHAT YOU'LL NEED To be successful in this role, you'll need 8+ years of software engineering industry experience, with a proven track record of technical leadership and system ownership. You'll have experience developing mobile apps, designing, debugging, and running fault-tolerant, highly available, large-scale distributed systems. You'll also have demonstrated experience driving technical roadmaps, managing cross-team dependencies, and influencing system architecture at an organizational level.
