Who We Are

30,000 products are launched every year, and 90% of them fail. Highlight is the first and only end-to-end agile product testing platform, enabling the efficient collection of scaled product performance data. Brands like Nestle, P&G, and Estee Lauder rely on Highlight for competitive benchmarking, pre-launch formulation testing, in-market product renovation, and more, to optimize product success. Highlight, launched in 2021, has seen runaway growth and scale, having tested hundreds of products at a fraction of the time and cost of traditional analog methods, and becoming the dominant SaaS platform in the product testing space. Highlight is a woman-owned, minority-owned startup on a mission to create better products for people and the planet. We’re a diverse and collaborative team committed to fostering an environment of innovation, impact, and growth.

We are looking for an experienced Senior Software Engineer to join our team and help shape the future of how data is analyzed and understood by our customers. In this role, you will work across the full stack, building scalable, high-performance software that delivers real value to our users. You will collaborate closely with designers, product managers, and engineers, driving technical excellence, architecting solutions, and influencing critical product decisions.

Your Impact

Collaborate in design and code reviews, setting a high bar for quality and best practices

Triage, investigate, and resolve complex issues involving distributed systems and third-party providers

Embrace an experimental and data-driven approach to problem-solving and decision-making

Understand and directly advance Highlight’s mission through your contributions

About You

5+ years of experience building web applications

Strong proficiency in multiple technologies in our stack: React, TypeScript, C#, ASP.NET, PostgreSQL,

Experience working on product-focused teams with end-to-end ownership

A strong product mindset—you care deeply about user experience and delivering real value

A proactive problem-solver who thrives in ambiguity and open-ended challenges

Strong collaboration skills—you mentor, learn, and contribute in a team-oriented environment

Bonus points for experience with: CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Terraform) and Production system operations (AWS, Kubernetes, observability platforms like DataDog)

Benefits

Health insurance (medical, dental, vision) with 100% of employee premiums covered

Unlimited PTO

Flexible, remote WFH culture

Access to the iconic Hearst Tower & its facilities in NYC (should you choose to ever be in person)

Based on previous experience and skillset, the on-target earnings for this position: $135,000 - $165,000

You don’t need to meet every qualification listed to apply—we value potential, curiosity, and diverse perspectives. At Highlight, we believe that innovation thrives when different experiences and ideas come together. We’re committed to building an inclusive team where individuals of all backgrounds - including but not limited to - race, age, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, national origin, religion, disability, veteran status, and more—feel empowered to contribute and grow.

If you’re a critical thinker who’s not afraid to challenge assumptions, we’d love to hear from you. We’re a passionate, supportive team that puts Humans First, cares about each other, and yes—we take our tacos seriously. 🌮
