super.com
We started Super.com to help maximize lives – both the lives of our customers and the lives of our team – so that everyone can experience all that life has to offer. For our employees, our promise is that Super.com is more than just a job; it’s an opportunity to unlock one’s potential, where learning is celebrated and impact is realized.
We are more than a fast-paced, high-growth tech company; we care about our people and take career progression seriously. This is your career and our aim is to supercharge it through the people, the work, and the programs that fuel who we are.
As our Engineering Director for Core Experience, you’ll lead the teams responsible for the shared member experiences that connect Super.com’s product verticals.
This organization owns key surfaces and systems including the homepage and discovery experiences, membership management, and the payments and rewards systems that power member value. It also provides the shared platform capabilities and operational support systems needed to deliver those experiences consistently across Super.com. Together, these capabilities help members understand and access the value available across the travel, fintech, and earnings products, while giving internal teams the tools and workflows needed to support the member experience effectively.
This role will report to the VP Engineering and lead a group of Engineering Managers, ensuring strong execution, technical quality, and a cohesive member experience across the platform. You’ll be a key driver of engineering standards, best practices, and improvements to our product development lifecycle. While you may occasionally jump into technical details to unblock momentum, your real impact comes from architectural leadership, organizational clarity, and elevating execution across the teams you lead.
Super.com is actively evolving how we build software as AI becomes a core part of the product development lifecycle. As a Director in this organization, you will play a meaningful role in that transformation. You will help teams adopt modern AI-enabled engineering practices, rethink how work is designed and executed, and identify opportunities where AI can meaningfully improve both product capabilities and development velocity while maintaining strong architectural and product quality standards.
Our stack includes React on the frontend and Python/Node microservices on the backend. You’ll also work with GitLab, AWS, Postgres, Redis, Datadog, Amplitude, and Snowflake as you scale our systems and elevate the engineering craft across the org.
Super.com engineering has four full-stack product development focus areas: fintech, travel, earnings, and a Super+ membership program to unite them all. Our dozens of microservices and event-driven architecture handle thousands of requests and events per second, ingest over 1TB of data per day, and process over $1MM per day in sales, leveraging state of the art infrastructure. We have more than 100 contributors to our codebase with highly skilled engineers across our teams. We work in close partnership with Product Managers, Designers, and QA in an agile/scrum, fast-paced, scaleup environment (that respects work/life balance). We focus on driving business value through ambitious technical achievement, and place a huge emphasis on providing the structure to fast-track our team members' growth.
