Role
Who you are
- BA/BS degree or equivalent experience
- You’ll thrive as a Staff Software Engineer if you:
- You have a genuine passion for building internal platforms that treat the developer experience as a first-class product, ensuring web application delivery is both scalable and seamless
- You exhibit proficiency in a diverse set of programming languages such as JavaScript, TypeScript, and Python and hands-on experience with modern web technology such as React, Node.js, Tailwind.css, and frameworks such as Next.js and Remix
- You have a solid grasp of containerization and orchestration tools like Docker and Kubernetes and extensive experience designing RESTful APIs, GraphQL APIs, and integrating third-party APIs
- You have experience architecting and productionizing safe, observable, self-service agentic AI solutions for developer workflows including driving CI/CD throughput improvements, and establishing usage and governance telemetry
- You possess a deep understanding of monorepo management, including the design and architectural patterns required to maintain performance and developer sanity at scale
- You can navigate the trade-offs between Developer Experience (DX) and platform-native technologies, ensuring our stack (JavaScript, TypeScript, React, etc.) remains both modern and maintainable
- You have a proven track record of implementing safe deployment patterns (e.g., canary, blue/green) and automated rollback capabilities to ensure high availability
- You are committed to establishing "paved paths" and self-service capabilities that allow teams to bundle, build, and deploy code—both within and outside the monorepo—with minimal friction
- You effectively connect the dots across multiple engineering teams, collaborating with senior leaders to architect high-quality solutions that balance speed with security and stability
- You are committed to cultivating an inclusive team culture and mentoring other engineers to foster a high-performance, continuous-learning environment
- Stay curious and open to growth — actively building fluency in emerging technologies like AI to unlock creativity, accelerate progress, and amplify impact

Our take
Webflow is an AI-native web experience platform that enables teams to design, build, manage, and optimize high-performing digital experiences across the entire website lifecycle — from creation to conversion — without relying on fragmented tools or constant developer handoffs.
Unlike traditional website builders or legacy CMS platforms, Webflow combines visual development, content management, optimization, analytics, localization, governance, and enterprise-grade hosting into a single, integrated system. This allows marketing, design, development, and growth teams — and increasingly AI agents — to collaborate in one shared environment while maintaining brand consistency, security, and control.
Built for a world where websites must perform for both humans and AI systems, Webflow helps organizations stay discoverable and relevant as search, personalization, and content consumption evolve. Native AI capabilities are embedded directly into core workflows, accelerating everything from site creation and content updates to experimentation, personalization, and AEO (AI Engine Optimization).
Today, over 3,000 organizations — from startups and agencies to global enterprises including Dell, Spotify, Dropbox, and Upcwork — use Webflow to build brand-forward digital experiences that drive measurable business results. With a strong partner ecosystem, enterprise adoption momentum, and more than $330M in funding, Webflow is redefining how modern teams build and scale on the web.
Rather than replacing developers, Webflow shifts development effort to where it matters most — freeing teams to move faster, operate more efficiently, and evolve their digital presence without replatforming as their needs grow.
