Ternary is Hiring a Staff Software Engineer, Full Stack

Ternary is seeking a talented Staff Software Engineer, Full Stack, to join our dynamic team. Enterprises rely on Ternary to gain visibility, control, and optimization across their technology investments. As organizations scale their cloud, SaaS, and AI spending, Ternary provides the intelligence platform that assists finance and engineering leaders in governing and maximizing the value of their technology estate.

About Ternary

At Ternary, we move fast, hold a high bar, and care deeply about the problems our customers face. Our team combines engineers, financial analysts, and operators who have built at scale before — and we’re doing it again with even greater ambition. We value directness and ownership while exercising sound judgment about when to act swiftly and when to take the time to get it right. If you’re eager to shape both the product and culture at a pivotal moment for our company, this is the right place for you.

Our Technology Stack

We build using React, TypeScript, Node.js, Go, BigQuery, and PostgreSQL. Familiarity with some of these technologies will provide valuable context. While we don’t expect you to be an expert in all of them, a basic understanding of the landscape will help you hit the ground running.

Ideal Candidate Profile

You should possess:

• 10+ years of delivering scalable web applications and platform services across various companies, with expertise in designing and implementing data and analytics platforms, including BigQuery, large-scale data warehousing, and pipelines that support analytics and product insights.
• Experience building backend services in Go.
• A passion for learning new skills and the ability to quickly ramp up in new areas.
• A bias for action — tackling ambiguity and difficult conversations directly, while promoting these values across the engineering organization.
• Experience interacting with customers and business leads.
• Excellent critical thinking and communication skills.
• The ability to regularly consider business lenses and tradeoffs, even for deeply technical engineering challenges.

Key Responsibilities

As a Staff Software Engineer, your key responsibilities will include:

• Acting as a technical anchor on our core platform — driving architectural decisions that define how we scale to serve enterprise finance and engineering customers.
• Leading critical large-scale projects, providing both hands-on technical expertise and end-to-end project execution.
• Contributing across the stack, focusing on API design, BigQuery, and modern data warehousing, as well as React/TypeScript front-end development.
• Driving and owning the end-to-end delivery of features, including planning, design, implementation, deployment, monitoring, adoption, and performance.
• Making informed tradeoffs between tactical and strategic technical approaches while balancing long-term scalability with immediate business needs.
• Owning the architecture and maintaining a high quality standard for the platform, especially for the web application layer.
• Participating in technical discussions, providing feedback on specs, and mentoring junior team members.

Compensation and Benefits

We offer a competitive compensation package, including:

• Company-sponsored travel to interact with colleagues several times a year.
• Generous health benefits, a 401(k) plan, and a work-from-home budget to set up your office (not available for contract or short-term roles).
• Equity compensation so all employees can participate in Ternary’s growth (not available for contract or short-term roles).
• A team culture that combines the best aspects of a startup with the maturity of a larger organization.
