Senior​/Software Engineer; Backend​/Full-Stack

What You’ll Own

You’ll take ownership of meaningful product and platform domains, designing and delivering systems end-to-end across backend services, APIs, and (when needed) user-facing surfaces.

You will:

• Design and ship complex features across backend, data, and frontend layers
• Define patterns for building reliable full-stack product systems
• Own API contracts, data models, and service boundaries
• Collaborate closely with product and design to deliver complete user journeys
• Improve developer productivity through better tooling, abstractions, and automation
• Raise the technical bar through thoughtful design and pragmatic execution

• Design scalable backend services and domain models
• Define API contracts and service boundaries across product areas
• Make decisions around data storage, consistency, and performance trade-offs
• Shape deployment, observability, and reliability strategies

• Build features from data model through API to UI
• Implement background jobs, workflows, and asynchronous processing
• Work across multiple services and domains when needed
• Own systems in production, including iteration and improvement

• Define testing strategies across services and layers
• Build observable systems with meaningful metrics and alerts
• Improve performance and scalability of critical paths
• Reduce operational complexity through thoughtful design

• Establish patterns used across engineering teams
• Mentor engineers on backend architecture and system design
• Contribute to long-term platform and product direction

• Strong backend or full-stack engineering background (minimum of 4yrs+)
• Experience working in complex domains (e.g. fintech, compliance, identity, workflow engines, data-heavy products)
• Deep understanding of APIs, service design, and data modeling
• Solid database knowledge (Postgres or equivalent), including performance and schema design
• Experience building distributed systems, background jobs, and asynchronous workflows
• Comfortable working across the stack when needed (React + Type Script or similar)
• Strong product sense — balancing usability, scalability, and reliability
• Clear technical communication and ability to influence decisions

• You’ve owned complex systems end-to-end
• You’re comfortable operating with ambiguity and defining structure
• You bias toward simple, durable architecture over novelty
• You think in domains, boundaries, and long-term maintainability
• You raise the bar for engineers around you
