LaunchDarkly is looking for an experienced Full Stack Engineer to play a key role in shaping the future of software delivery on the Guarded Releases team. We have multiple full-stack openings on this team, ranging from early-career to mid-level roles. In a world where agents are delivering code faster and more reliably, releasing safely is no longer optional infrastructure; it’s a competitive advantage. The Guarded Releases team is focused on making every release safer, faster, and more reliable. Our mission is to redefine how software is released: automating release processes, measuring the real-time impact of feature rollouts, and simplifying debugging when things go wrong. From automated release pipelines to metrics monitoring, error tracking, and fully automated rollbacks, our work ensures every code change is measured, and the entire release process from rollout to issue mitigation is managed for maximum efficiency and reliability.
We are solving critical challenges in modern software delivery: reducing the time it takes to detect regressions, automating responses to minimize risk, and eliminating manual effort. We extensively use the products we build, allowing us to create our own ideal release process while shaping the developer experience for teams across the industry.
If you’re interested in building the systems that help software teams ship safely at scale, we’d love to work with you.
Collaborate seamlessly with cross-functional partners (product, design, data science, and engineering) to architect and advance our observability products. Leverage your broad experience to facilitate strategic discussions that align technical solutions with business goals, ensuring the delivery of scalable and effective features.
Drive comprehensive end-to-end feature development, taking full ownership from proof of concept through to delivery. Ensure that each feature provides robust observability into system behavior and customer usage patterns post-launch, applying a deep understanding of both technical and user experience considerations to optimize feature performance and reliability.
Proactively identify opportunities for product and user experience improvements, leveraging data insights and feedback to propose innovative, well-reasoned solutions. Lead the implementation of these enhancements, balancing user needs, business goals, and technical feasibility, ensuring each change drives meaningful improvements in engagement and performance.
Actively lead and contribute to code reviews, spec reviews, and architecture design, ensuring alignment with best practices, long-term scalability, and maintainability. Your experience will drive thorough and thoughtful evaluation of solutions, while providing constructive feedback that elevates the quality of the codebase.
Stay at the forefront of development trends, experimentation, and data-driven product evolution, bringing deep expertise to suggest and implement forward-thinking improvements in tools, processes, and methodologies. Your proactive involvement in continuous learning and improvement will help ensure the team remains competitive and cutting-edge in its approach to building user-focused products.
3-5+ years of professional software engineering experience, with a track record of shipping production-quality full-stack features
Proficiency across the full stack—comfortable in TypeScript/React on the frontend and Go (or similar) on the backend
Experience building data-focused products such as experimentation platforms, analytics dashboards, or large-scale data visualizations.
Proficient in designing, implementing, and maintaining RESTful APIs
Experience working directly with customers and understanding how their work impacts business goals
Strong sense of ownership and accountability for delivering impactful solutions
Proven ability to work closely and collaborate with cross functional partners, like product, design, and data scientists.
Demonstrated ability to write clean, well-documented, and testable code with a focus on maintainability and extensibility.
Strong understanding of observability and monitoring tools and practices.
Excellent communication, collaboration, and interpersonal skills

Modern software delivery was supposed to be the foundation for a thriving digital business but reality has proven otherwise. Slow, inefficient development cycles, costly outages, and fragmented customer experiences are preventing developers from building their best software. The LaunchDarkly platform helps developers innovate on new features faster while protecting them with a safety valve to instantly rewind when things go wrong. Developers can target product experiences to any customer segment and maximize the business impact of every feature. And by gradually rolling out new application components, they escape nightmare "big-bang" technology migrations.
