Why this grade This listing scored 56/100, which is a C. It lost the most ground on pay transparency. See the breakdown
- Description depth 20 / 20 How much the posting actually says about the work, measured in characters of real text.
- Pay transparency 12 / 25 A published salary range, worth more than any other single factor because it is what a candidate cannot find out without applying.
- Corroboration 10 / 10 Whether more than one source carries this listing.
- Freshness 8 / 15 How recently it was posted. Older postings are likelier to be filled or abandoned.
- Remote clarity 8 / 15 Whether "remote" means anywhere, or is quietly restricted to one country.
- Role specificity 3 / 10 Whether the listing is tagged well enough to tell what the role actually is.
-5 Ghost-job penalty — Deducted for signals that this posting may not be a real, currently-open role — staleness, repeated relisting, or talent-pool language.
Every figure above is arithmetic over the posting itself — its salary field, its text, its age, its tags and how many sources carry it. How the grades work →

$127k – $168k
That is the middle half of what comparable roles paid on this board over the last 90 days — 27 listings that did publish a figure, median $145k. It is not this employer's offer, and we have no idea what they pay. It is only what the rest of the market advertised.
hn-hiring
Mattermost (https://mattermost.com) is an open-core collaboration and workflow automation platform for air-gapped, on-prem and private clouds. Our customers are in defense, intelligence, security and critical infrastructure, including the USAF and NASA. Y Combinator led our Series B, their largest open-source investment at the time.
Both openings are full stack on the core platform: Go backend, React/TypeScript frontend, PostgreSQL and Redis. The codebase is public (https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost), so most of what you build is too. We would rather hire people who ship and own complex software end to end than chase an exact stack match, so any systems or backend language and any frontend stack counts. What we look for in both roles: REST and WebSocket APIs with real networking fundamentals (HTTP, connection lifecycle), and relational databases including schema design and query optimization.
We use coding agents daily (Claude Code, Cursor, and others) at every stage of the work: planning, building, reviewing, testing, and shipping. We treat that as core craft rather than a shortcut around the fundamentals. If you have a track record of shipping and owning complex software end-to-end, we want to hear from you.
Senior Full Stack Engineer $142,723 - $172,723 USD
Architect and ship full stack features end to end, own the testing strategy for what you ship, and build internal tooling and testing infrastructure that makes the rest of the team faster. You will work without close supervision and hold the security and compliance bar our customers require. Nice to have: distributed systems and high availability architecture, regulated-environment security, open-source contributions, experience on remote-first teams.

Staff Full Stack Engineer $172,724 - $227,135 USD
Set technical direction for the platform rather than for a feature area: architecture and roadmap across the stack, the standards for how the org uses coding agents, and the strategy for internal tooling and testing. You will influence direction across teams, partner with security and compliance on it, and mentor senior engineers. Nice to have: staff, principal or tech lead experience elsewhere, open-source maintainership, FedRAMP or ITAR familiarity, defense or critical infrastructure background.
