About MeetsMore

MeetsMore Chuo-ku, Tokyo

We offer two core services: MeetsMore, an online platform that seamlessly handles everything from quote comparison to order placement, and ProOne, an all-in-one SaaS solution tailored for field service industries.

Key benefits

  • International team
  • Two products at different phases
  • Customer and product oriented culture

About the position

We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer who is passionate about building reliable, scalable, and maintainable systems—from backend business logic to frontend user experiences.

You’ll work primarily with TypeScript, with React on the frontend and Nest.js/Prisma on the backend. You’ll collaborate closely with both engineers and non-engineers (product, design, biz/ops) to ship features that power the core of our product for some of Japan’s largest enterprise customers.

You’ll have the opportunity to:

  • Design and deliver features end-to-end across the stack (frontend, backend, architecture)
  • Take ownership of technically challenging projects, such as algorithm optimization, complex data modeling, or new platform integrations
  • Shape and evolve our core backend and data persistence layers
  • Drive improvements in system reliability, performance, and maintainability
  • Mentor other engineers and champion high standards in code quality and architecture
  • Contribute to key open source projects and upstream dependencies as part of your normal workflow

We value engineers who care deeply about technical quality, end-user experience, and long-term stability—not just shipping tickets fast.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of professional software engineering experience
  • Significant experience with TypeScript
  • 2+ years of hands-on work with React (or a similar modern frontend framework)
  • Strong understanding of backend frameworks, database modeling (SQL/Prisma), and asynchronous app architecture
  • Proficiency collaborating across functions (product, design, operations, and stakeholders)
  • Track record of delivering production systems with an emphasis on reliability, testability, and maintainability
  • Familiarity with modern development workflows: Git, PR reviews, CI/CD, and automated testing

Nice to haves

While not specifically required, tell us if you have any of the following.

  • Development and operation using containers (e.g. Docker)
  • Cloud infrastructure experience (e.g. AWS or GCP)
  • Machine learning or recommendation engines
  • Performance measurement and bottleneck investigation
  • Conversational-level Japanese (equivalent to JLPT N3 or greater).

Compensation

¥7,500,000 ~ ¥10,000,000 annually.

Hiring Process

  1. 1

    Casual Chat

    A 30-minute informal conversation with a MeetsMore engineer for you to learn more about us, and for us to learn about your interests and experience.

  2. 2

    Coding Interview

    A 1-hour, real-world scenario coding session in TypeScript (not a LeetCode-style problem). Use Google, Stack Overflow, and any resources you’d typically use in your work.

  3. 3

    System Architecture & Design Discussion

    A 1-hour conversational interview focused on architectural decisions, data modeling, reliability, and trade-offs in complex real-world systems.

  4. 4

    Chat with CTO / Upper Management

    A 1-hour informal chat with Fumi-san our CTO, or a member of upper management.
