About the role

We’re hiring a Senior Software Engineer to help build Velora’s AI-native software platform, giving nonprofit teams more time for their mission and less time spent on administration. Your initial focus will be the CRM, data and integrations that support donor management, communications, automation and reporting, helping evolve an established product as Velora’s platform grows.

This is a senior, full-stack role with ownership from a Product prototype through technical design, implementation, release and verification in production. You’ll create clarity in ambiguous problems, make pragmatic architectural decisions and partner closely with Product and engineering colleagues.

AI is central to how we work. You’ll direct coding agents, apply your own engineering judgment and stay accountable for what ships. You’ll also raise the team’s capability through rigorous code review, mentoring and reusable engineering practices.

What will you be doing?

- Own high-impact projects end to end, from a Product prototype through solution design, build, release and post-release stability.

- Partner with Product to clarify customer outcomes, break work into useful increments and raise scope-versus-date tradeoffs early.

- Work across frontend, backend, infrastructure and data to deliver complete features rather than a single layer.

- Design secure APIs and data models, protect sensitive donor information and coach teammates on secure engineering practices.

- Run an AI-native Plan → Implement → Verify workflow: direct coding agents, critically review their output and remain accountable for every change.

- Own quality and release readiness through unit, integration and end-to-end tests, failure-case validation and production verification; monitor and troubleshoot what you ship.
