Original job description

About Beacon Software

Beacon is acquiring and operating a portfolio of vertical SaaS companies. Most private equity firms scale by adding people. We are building Beacon to scale by adding software. The thesis is simple: portfolio operations, value creation, and deal sourcing are bottlenecked by human attention, and an agentic operating system can lift that ceiling by an order of magnitude.

We are building that system. A cross-portfolio data lake on open table formats, with a feature store on top that makes the data agent-readable. An action layer that runs workflows across three domains: how we run the portfolio, how we grow the portfolio, and how we acquire into it. A feedback loop underneath that captures every action and outcome with stable identifiers. By the next phase of buildout we will have 100+ portfolio companies running on this platform. That is a problem set with serious data scale, real multi-tenant isolation requirements, and very few precedents to copy from.

About the Role

Members of Technical Staff (MTS) are the senior engineers who build the platform that everything else at Beacon runs on. You will own a piece of the core stack end-to-end: design, implementation, operations, and the long-term technical direction of that area. This is a Staff Engineer role in everything but name. We run flat.

The work is systems engineering at its core. Multi-tenant data infrastructure across very different portcos. Event-driven pipelines that have to be correct under partial failure. Service architectures that have to stay simple as the product surface grows. APIs and SDKs that other engineers - including FDEs out in the field - will build on every day. ML and agentic systems are part of the stack. They sit on top of a foundation that has to be solid first.

This is not infrastructure for its own sake. The platform has to be solid before anything else at Beacon works. That is the job.

What You'll Do

You will own one of these areas end-to-end:

Data platform. The cross-portco data lake on Iceberg with Snowflake or Databricks as the query engine. Per-portco S3 and KMS isolation. The ingestion pipeline from QuickBooks, HubSpot, Salesforce, PostHog, Intercom, Linear, Slack, Gmail, Postgres, Stripe, Zendesk, and our internal tools. The canonical data model that survives contact with very different portcos. The catalog and semantic layer on top so a query like "show me sales across all portcos" actually resolves.
Core services and APIs. The backend services that everything else at Beacon depends on: identity, access control, audit, workflow orchestration, the internal APIs that FDEs and ops engineers build against. The bar here is not novelty. It is correctness, latency, observability, and the kind of API design that ages well.
Multi-tenant isolation. Per-portco data, compute, and credential boundaries. Cross-cloud (AWS and Azure) connectivity. Regional residency for portcos in regulated verticals. This is the unglamorous infrastructure work that determines whether we can onboard portco 50 as fast as portco 5.
Workflow and action runtime. The execution layer that runs operational workflows across the three domains. Typed action surfaces, idempotency, retries, rollback paths, human-in-the-loop approval gates, audit trails. Some workflows are scripted. Some are model-driven. The runtime treats them as variations of the same primitive.
Observability and evals. The harness that tells us whether the system is working: traces, metrics, structured logs, replay infrastructure, regression suites, the ability to safely A/B-test changes across the portfolio. Both for traditional services and for model-driven workflows.
Safety and blast radius. Wrong actions against a portco's customers, revenue, or product are the worst kind of mistake we can make. Designing the autonomy tiers, the kill switches, the per-action-class blast-radius caps, and the audit surfaces is foundational platform work, not an afterthought.

Who You Are

Senior engineering depth. Staff or principal-equivalent. You have built and operated systems that real businesses depend on. You write clean, idiomatic code in at least one of Python, Go, Rust, or TypeScript, and you can work in any of them. You have an opinion on how to structure a service and you can defend it without raising your voice.
Distributed systems intuition. You have lived through enough production incidents to know where things actually break. Idempotency, partial failure, retry semantics, eventual consistency, schema evolution, multi-tenant isolation. These are not concepts you read about. They are things you have debugged at 2am.
Data infrastructure experience. You have built or operated something non-trivial on a modern data stack: Kafka, Spark, dbt, Iceberg, Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery, or comparable. You understand the difference between a warehouse and a lake, and when each is the right answer.
Platform mindset. You build for the engineer two seats over as much as for the end user. Your APIs are easy to use correctly and hard to use incorrectly. You write the documentation. You make the migration path obvious. You treat developer experience as a feature, not a chore.
Comfortable with ambiguity. The product surface and the scope of the platform are still being defined. You will be making decisions in week 1 that constrain what is possible in year 3. You need to be the kind of engineer who is energized by that, not paralyzed by it.
Interest in modern ML, not necessarily expertise. You do not need to be an ML researcher. You need to be the kind of engineer who can read a paper, build the infrastructure around a model someone else trained, and have an informed opinion on where ML belongs in the stack and where it does not. If you have shipped LLM-driven systems in production, that is a plus, not a requirement.

Bonus Points

Prior Staff or Principal Engineer experience at a high-bar engineering org.
Experience with Iceberg, Polaris, Snowflake, or Databricks at scale.
Multi-tenant SaaS or platform infrastructure background.
Production experience with LLM-driven systems, including evals and observability.
Background in offline RL, contextual bandits, or sequential decision-making (for the applied research workstreams).
Open-source contributions to data infrastructure, observability, or developer tooling projects.

Our Values at Beacon Software

Humility: We acknowledge that the path to getting to the right answer involves being wrong along the way. We have strong beliefs which are weakly held. We actively seek new ideas and believe we can learn from anyone at any time.
Honesty: We are truth seeking in our approach to business problems. Business is a repeat game and we believe that human relationships generate alpha. We understand that trust is earned over a lifetime and can be lost in an instant.
Hunger: We play to win. We hold ourselves to high standards and will not be outworked. We take pride in having a deep sense of responsibility to ourselves, each other, our partners, and our customers. We believe to whom much is given much is expected.
Horizon: We seek to build a generational software company. This will take decades. We manage our expectations and those of our partners to take advantage of the 8th wonder of the world - compounding growth.

How We Use AI in Our Hiring Process: To ensure transparency, we want candidates to know that Beacon Software uses Artificial Intelligence and AI-enabled tools to assist with screening, reviewing, organizing and highlighting profiles and applications that match the key requirements for each role.

AI does not make hiring decisions: Every application is reviewed by a member of our team, and all decisions throughout the process are made by humans. We use AI to support efficiency and consistency, not to replace human judgment. We are committed to a fair, thoughtful, and equitable experience for every candidate.
