Senior Software Engineer Review

EngineeringFull-timeRemote
Aug 28, 2025

What I liked

Great remote policy, excellent benefits, challenging technical problems and lots of autonomy on projects. Hiring process brings in strong engineers and there are opportunities to lead features.

Areas for improvement

Sometimes decision-making is slow and process-heavy. Cross-team communication can be clunky which delays releases during big sprints.

Jul 12, 2025

What I liked

Cutting-edge sequencing technology, very collaborative teams, strong mentorship and resources for experiments. I appreciate access to high-quality instruments and the emphasis on publishing and validation.

Areas for improvement

Sometimes slow decision-making from upper management and a fair bit of internal paperwork. Salary growth is modest compared to industry startups.

Good commission structure, supportive colleagues, and flexible hybrid days which helped manage field travel. Strong brand recognition makes customer conversations easier.

Too much administrative work at times and product training can be uneven between regions. Career ladder could be clearer for field roles.
