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, a roughly $200B global industry expected to double in the next decade. We work for toll authorities and state DOTs, and we own the whole system, from the roadside camera to the final bill, so every vehicle we see becomes one accurate toll transaction and nothing more. While our competitors have thousands of employees, we operate with a lean but growing team of less than 30. Our impact is visible on the massive Interstate Highway System connecting every major US metro (except Juneau, AK-sorry, Juneau).\nYou are a good fit if...\nYou love the grind: You take ownership and put in the time to meet deadlines. Our recent team survey showed an average of 55 hours/week, with occasional 70+ hour bursts for major releases.\n\nYou are detail obsessed: You have experience writing code, designing or building systems that stands up to the unpredictability of the physical world, where the small details are the difference between success and failure.\n\nYou are adaptable: We are a lean team. If you only want to work on a \"niche thing\" or are uncomfortable helping other teams when they need a boost, this isn't the place for you. We expect you to figure out what you need to get stuff done.\n\nYou code really well: We mostly use Python and TypeScript, but we don’t care what you’re most proficient in today-as long as you learn fast.\n\nYou value working together in person: You’re excited to work alongside the team at our Denver office. This role is in-office on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, with flexibility to work remotely on Tuesdays and Thursdays.\n\nThe Mission: Forget the \"shadowing\" and the \"simulated projects.\" At Blissway, you will be given real ownership from Week 1. You are a high-level individual contributor who can navigate any part of the Blissway stack.\nShip Production Code: Contribute to the \"Secret Sauce\" that identifies millions of cars daily.\n\nDrive 1-to-100 Scaling: Take proven prototypes and turn them into robust, high-volume systems.\n\nEdge-to-Cloud Logic: Write software that lives on roadside hardware and the servers that process its data.\n\nRapid Prototyping: Work alongside brilliant engineers to integrate ML models that improve highway safety in real-time.\n\nTotal Fluidity: Thrive in an environment where you might move from ML models to hardware glitch detection in the same week.\n\nRequirements\nEducation: Degree in Computer Science, Robotics, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field.\n\nPortfolio: A track record of building things-be it side projects, or open-source contributions.\n\nMindset: You are excited to work at a startup and be part of a core engineering team. You don't wait for a manual or a step-by-step guide; you figure out what you need to get stuff done and you do it with a professional, \"owner\" mentality. You understand that in a small team, feedback is the fastest way to level up and you welcome it.\n\nOur Technical Ecosystem: While we value problem-solving over specific syntax, skills that transfer well are:\nLanguages: Typescript, Python, C++\n\nFrameworks and Tools: Node.js, Express, NestJS, Next.js, React, Tailwind CSS\n\nInfrastructure: AWS, Docker, Linux, IoT Edge Devices\n\nSpecialties: Computer Vision (OpenCV), ML Integration, Payment Processing\n\nThe Interview Process\nWe're a selectively small team, which means a deliberate and thorough interview process with 3-4 interviews and a final paid work trial. In exchange, you get real autonomy from day one, direct access to the people setting technical direction, and work that ships to roads in weeks, not quarters.\nThe Essentials (Health & Wealth)\nRelocation 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.\n\nPersonalized 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.\n\nInvesting in Your Future: 401(k) matching up to 4%.\n\nPeace of Mind: Transparent compensation. Company-sponsored life & disability insurance.\n\nEarly 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.\n\nRest & Recharge\nHigh-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.\n\nFamily First: 12 weeks of paid parental leave for birth and adoptive parents. We want you present for the moments that matter most.\n\nThe 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.\n\nFuel & Community\nThe Blissway Kitchen: Whether it’s breakfast to start your day or our daily group lunches, we keep the team fueled.\n\nSnacks Autonomy: Our kitchen is fully stocked and we mean it-if we’re missing your favorite fuel, just add it to the request list.\n\nThe \"BlissTrip\": An annual 4-day getaway for the team and significant others.\n\nMonthly Beats: Game nights, escape rooms, and dinners to celebrate the grit we put in.\n\nContinuous Learning: Tuition reimbursement for courses, programs, and conferences that sharpen your craft.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5655,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Continuous learning","Equity","Parental leave"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":true,"industries":["Transport Infrastructure","Smart Mobility"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-04-27T17:51:05Z"},{"event":"close","at":"2026-08-13T11:30:17Z"},{"event":"reopen","at":"2026-09-05T01:25:56Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 3","filings_12m":3,"filings_prev_12m":1,"green_card_filings_12m":0,"median_offered_wage_usd":147500,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-29T16:27:21+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)"],"filings_for_role_12m":3}],"liveness":{"score":14,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.382,"p_room":0.36,"age_days":190,"expected_fill_days":96,"reasons":["conf:0","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-11-04T06:34:25Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":175000,"is_top_pay":false},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/blissway-inc-chile-based-software-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/blissway-inc-chile-based-software-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-04T10:47:27Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":16046,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-05T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":5453},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=5453"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fblissway-inc-chile-based-software-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fblissway-inc-chile-based-software-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fblissway-inc-chile-based-software-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/blissway-inc-chile-based-software-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fblissway-inc-chile-based-software-engineer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":19068}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"blissway.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":19068},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
