Full Job Description
Steer offers a suite of software tools for today's automotive repair shop. We combine a mix of software tools that a repair shop needs to run a highly profitable shop, in one user-friendly, cost-effective platform. Through the Steer suite, we allow the shop owner to get back to focusing on what matters, and to stop worrying about marketing and customer retention. Steer began as an online directory for drivers to find a local mechanic. Fast forward to today, Steer has launched a complete Customer Relationship Management (CRM) marketing suite, complete with text messaging, email automation, direct mail integration, reputation management, appointment reminders, declined/recommended services, and many other features. We are always innovating and we are proud to be a leader in the automotive repair industry. In August 2024 Steer acquired AutoOps - the leader in modern, intelligent, and fully integrated scheduling software for auto repair shops. AutoOps allows customers to smoothly schedule through a shop's website and Google Business Profile. About the Role We're growing our world-class engineering team to usher our CRM platform into the next generation of software — and we're looking for a visionary Principal Full Stack Engineer to join our Core Platform Team Most Lead roles at "Big Tech" companies involve maintaining a single microservice or acting as a small cog in a 100-person machine. At Steer, you aren't just a contributor; you are the architect of a platform aiming for 100% market dominance. This is a high-impact role for someone who doesn't just write great code, but who can see around corners, challenge conventions, and lead entire products from vision to launch. We are actively refactoring our existing teams to be agentic-first — meaning our engineers don't just use AI as a tool, they architect systems around autonomous, AI-driven workflows. This is not a future initiative; it is how we build today. Why Steer? True Ownership: You will lead massive products from
