Cater is hiring senior software engineers to build shared platform capabilities across administration, integrations, and transaction-heavy product experiences. This role is centered on backend services, APIs, workflow orchestration, and reliable distributed systems.

We are looking for engineers who are fluent in an AI-native SDLC. That means more than familiarity with tools like Claude, Codex, or Cursor. The right engineer knows how to use AI effectively across planning, implementation, review, testing, and iteration, and understands how to improve the surrounding workflows, skills, and engineering standards. Go experience is strongly preferred. Deep experience in a similar backend language is also valuable.###

What You'll Do
* Build shared services, APIs, and workflows that support administrative experiences, integrations, and core platform capabilities

* Experience designing APIs, service boundaries, data models, and integration patterns in distributed systems
* Comfort with workflow orchestration, event-driven architectures, and operational complexity
* A strong quality mindset across testing, CI/CD, telemetry, and production ownership
* Strong communication and a high-ownership approach to technical execution### Nice to Have

* Experience in fintech, payments, spend controls, ledgering, or…
