About the Team

At Dice, we believe that delivering an exceptional candidate experience — the end-to-end journey a job seeker takes to discover, evaluate, and land their next role — is essential to the success of our platform. This team plays a critical role in building the next generation of that experience, contributing across a modern full-stack environment. We value engineers who are curious, collaborative, and committed to making an impact for thousands of job seekers.

We are an AI-native team. We actively use AI coding assistants (e.g., Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI) to accelerate development, sharpen code quality, and focus our energy on higher-impact engineering work.

About the Role

As a Software Engineer at Dice, you'll contribute to the design, development, and delivery of high-impact product features in a modern, cloud-native stack. As a Software Engineer, you'll be expected to provide technical support within the team by adhering to architectural decisions, working collaboratively with teammates, and helping maintain a high standard of quality and maintainability. You'll contribute cross-functionally with Product, Design, and Data partners to achieve ongoing outcomes and implement sound technical solutions.

Being AI-native is central to how we work. We expect engineers in this role to go beyond using AI as a simple chat assistant, embracing tools like Claude Code as core parts of the development workflow to increase productivity such as automating repetitive tasks by generating skills and leveraging subagents, and apply best practices through prompt engineering to get the most out of the AI tools we use at every stage of the software lifecycle.

Why We're Hiring for This Role

As we scale and modernize our platform, we're looking for engineers who can take ownership of complex systems, communicate effectively with collaborators and team members, deploy AI-powered features, and contribute to product and architectural decisions. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys working across the stack, solving real user problems, working with AI, and influencing both code and culture.

In the Short Term, You Will:

Ramp Up on Systems and Codebases

Gain familiarity with our applications, services, tools, and infrastructure. Develop an understanding of how your team's work fits into the broader product and architecture.

Establish Technical Ownership

Take responsibility for features and systems, provide thoughtful code reviews, and contribute to team design discussions. You'll be trusted to make solid technical decisions and defend them clearly when needed while staying open to feedback.

Collaborate and Align

Work closely with engineers, product managers, designers, and stakeholders to align on priorities and deliver incremental value. Help improve the team's planning and execution rhythm.

In the Long Term, You Will:

Drive Technical Excellence

Help evolve our systems through well-designed, scalable architecture. Reduce tech debt, improve performance, and contribute to shared engineering standards.
