Summary

We are looking for a US-based Senior Software Engineer to join our team in a part-time, client-facing role. This position requires only 4 to 5 hours per week, but the person must be highly professional, technically experienced, and comfortable communicating directly with clients. The main responsibility is not daily development work, but client communication, technical discussion, interview participation, requirement clarification, and professional representation of our team. The ideal candidate should have strong software engineering experience and be able to understand technical scopes, explain solutions clearly, ask the right questions, and help clients feel confident during meetings. We need someone with native-level English communication skills, strong interview skills, and the ability to speak naturally and professionally with US-based clients. You should be able to join discovery calls, technical interviews, project meetings, and follow-up discussions while presenting yourself as a senior technical expert. This is a long-term part-time opportunity with monthly compensation between $3,000 and $5,000, depending on experience, communication ability, and availability. 1. Responsibilities include: - Meet with clients and represent the technical team professionally. - Explain technical solutions in clear, confident, and natural English. - Join interviews, discovery calls, and project discussions. - Clarify client requirements and identify missing technical details. - Communicate project scope, timelines, risks, and next steps. - Help bridge communication between clients and the internal development team. - Provide senior-level technical insight when needed. 2. Requirements: - Must be based in the United States. - Senior-level software engineering background. - Excellent client-facing communication skills. - Native-level English speaking and writing ability. - Strong interview and meeting skills. - Ability to understand full-stack, backend, frontend, API, cloud, or AI-related project discussions. - Professional, reliable, and comfortable speaking directly with business clients. This role is ideal for a senior engineer who enjoys communication, consulting, client interaction, and helping technical teams win and manage projects professionally.
