Join Lepaya!

At Lepaya, our engineering team is a core driver of product-led growth. We’re building solutions that empower L&D professionals, and we’re moving fast. That means big challenges, high stakes, and real impact.

You will positively impact our users' lives by leading the product delivery by planning, designing, and implementing high-quality software. In addition to new features, you will also be responsible for maintaining and refactoring legacy code when applicable, by writing flexible, efficient, and clean code that is well-tested.

We’re looking for a Senior Full-Stack Engineer who thrives in dealing with complexity and reducing it, brings clarity to chaos, and consistently ships high-quality software—fast. In a lean, high-performing team, we need someone who’s not just experienced but driven to make real change happen. This isn’t the place for comfort zones. But if you’re looking for ownership, autonomy, and the opportunity to build things that truly matter, this is your stage.
