About the role

Software Engineer, Full Stack Blissway is a startup that simplifies toll collection and dramatically improves highway safety. We are multiple startups in one: Deep Tech, AI/ML, Hardware, SaaS, and IoT. For the past five years, we have built a nearly insurmountable technological lead in tolling, an industry that is quietly bigger than football. While our competitors have thousands of employees, we operate with a lean but growing team of less than 30. We've stayed under the radar, but our impact is visible on the massive Interstate Highway System connecting every major US metro (except Juneau, AK—sorry, Juneau).You are building the platform that connects Blissway's deep-tech hardware to the drivers, partners, and government agencies we work with. That means owning both the internal systems that have to be right and the public surfaces that have to be trusted
The Work: Public Impact: You will help the software that millions of drivers use to manage their toll accounts: payments, account history, violation disputes, and communications. This has to be as secure and robust as it is intuitive. When a driver gets a toll bill, this is what they see. Partner integrations: The Back Office team is the connective tissue between Blissway and the outside world. You'll build and maintain integrations with DMVs, mailhouses, and fleet vendors for ACH payment processing. Each integration has its own data contract, compliance constraints, and edge cases. This is early-stage work that requires both technical judgment and the ability to operate without a spec. Platform & DevOps: Not just the connective tissue to the outside world, but the connective tissue for us as well. That includes deployment tooling, service infrastructure, and the shared standards that let a team of 25 move as fast as we do. If something is painful to stand up or run, that's your problem to fix. Access & internal tooling: Consolidate how services authenticate and how operators manage access across all Blissway deployments, including a unified management interface for our internal teams.
Requirements: Degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field. A track record of building things—be it side projects, open-source contributions, or high-impact internships. You are a "fully formed adult." You don't wait for a manual; you figure out what you need to get stuff done and you do it in a professional manner. You understand that feedback is critical to growth and you welcome it.2 to 6 years of software engineering on a quickly shipping team. We want someone with true end-to-end experience: you've taken products from ideation to production and owned what happens after they ship.
The Essentials (Health & Wealth): Relocation Support: We are excited for you to join the team at our engineering office in Denver. We value in-person collaboration and daily team lunches and we provide a relocation bonus to help you get here. Personalized Health Coverage (ICHRA): We don't believe in one-size-fits-all healthcare. We provide a monthly allowance for you and dependents so you can choose the individual plan that actually fits your life. Investing in Your Future: 401(k) matching up to 4%.Peace of Mind: Transparent compensation. Company-sponsored life & disability insurance. Early Stage Equity: Competitive equity package. Every year, we facilitate a tender process that gives you the opportunity to sell your vested shares at the same valuation as our investors.
Rest & Recharge: High-Trust Time Off: 4 weeks of untracked PTO. We don't micromanage your calendar; we focus on your impact. Take the time you need to stay sharp and inspired. Family First: 12 weeks of paid parental leave for birth and adoptive parents. We want you present for the moments that matter most. The Deep Breath (Sabbatical): Every 5 years, take 12 weeks of fully paid leave. Go travel, write a book, or master a new hobby—then come back and tell us all about it.
Fuel & Community: The Blissway Kitchen: Whether it's breakfast to start your day or our daily group lunches, we keep the team fueled. Snacks Autonomy: Our kitchen is fully stocked and we mean it—if we're missing your favorite fuel, just add it to the request list. The "BlissTrip": An annual 4-day getaway for the team and significant others. Monthly Beats: Game nights, escape rooms, and dinners to celebrate the grit we put in. Continuous Learning: Tuition reimbursement for courses, programs, and conferences that sharpen your craft.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
