Staff Backend Engineer

$180k - $320k

TREQS

Job Description

Fully remote role in either US or Canada

\n

Base salary (DOE): $180-320k, bens and meaningful equity

\n

Open to all US and Canadian citizens, Green card holders as well as visa transfers (e.g. OPT, H1B transfers)

\n

\n

Most data sits in a warehouse doing nothing. My client is a a. hugely successful software product company that is building out the team for one of their products.

\n

\n

This product provides a purpose-built no-code suite of features that enables anyone, regardless of their SQL experience, to activate data directly from their warehouse.

\n

\n

We're hiring a product-minded backend engineer to help decide what comes next.

\n

\n

On the table:

\n

\n
    \n
  • Warehouse performance — pushing warehouses past what they were built for, through query optimisation, pre-computed state and vendor-specific improvements.
  • \n
  • Analytics & experimentation — helping customers build segments, test audiences, and see what's actually working downstream.
  • \n
  • Real-time syncing — as warehouses adopt CDC, how close to real-time can audience computation get?
  • \n
  • Generative AI — making acting on data feel seamless rather than technical.
  • \n
\n

\n

You'll likely bring:

\n

\n
    \n
  • 6+ years building backend systems, including time at a high-growth startup somewhere between Series A and E
  • \n
  • Language agnostic
  • \n
  • Strong systems design fundamentals and a feel for how large-scale data processing behaves under pressure
  • \n
  • A product brain — comfortable writing specs, iterating on feedback, and getting on a call with a user
  • \n
  • Clear communication and a genuine appetite for unsolved problems
  • \n
\n

\n

This is a senior role, but impact and growth potential matter more here than years on a CV so if you're a superstar with 4 years experience in a high-growth startup then we need to talk!

\n

\n

This is a deep backend role, not full-stack, infra, data engineering or DevOps. If that's you, message me anyway — there are other roles I can point you at.
