Senior Backend & Algorithm Engineer

Timeshifter

Unlocking human performance, safety and health through circadian timing and control. Time isn’t just hours, minutes, and seconds. There’s a different kind of time — not invented by us or powered by batteries. It’s each person’s internal circadian time, which quietly governs nearly every biological system in our bodies — from sleep and alertness to metabolism and immune function — and can vary significantly between people. The undisputed leader in circadian technology. At Timeshifter, we translate complex circadian science into practical, high-impact products that address challenges affecting billions, each using the same core technology. Our first product — a jet lag app — is now the most downloaded in the world. Our second is designed to help shift workers improve sleep, health, and quality of life, while enhancing safety and boosting productivity. Timeshifter is also trusted where circadian control is mission‑critical, from space missions to elite sports. As we enter the next frontier of personalized medicine, we’re exploring how Timeshifter can serve as the clock for delivering healthcare aligned with each person’s biology. Role Overview As a Senior Backend & Algorithm Engineer, you will lead backend development and algorithm design at the forefront of circadian science and technology. Working closely with two of Timeshifter’s co‑founders — world‑renowned circadian expert Dr. Steven W. Lockley and CXO Jacob Ravn — you will enhance Timeshifter’s cutting‑edge technology platform and circadian algorithms, expand AI/ML capabilities, and manage technical integrations. Responsibilities Advance Timeshifter’s circadian technology platform, develop and refine algorithms, drive AI integration, improve APIs, and manage technical partner integrations. Qualifications Strong experience in backend development, algorithms, and AI. Experienced in good software design and practices. Familiarity with ReactJS, SQL, Linux and embedded systems, as well as AWS and Kubernetes. Compensation We offer a highly competitive compensation package that includes a market‑leading salary, stock options, and a comprehensive benefits program. You will receive premium medical, dental, and vision coverage, along with additional perks designed to support your long‑term health, well‑being, and financial security. Timeshifter is the leader in circadian technology, translating circadian science into products and solutions that improve human health, safety and performance. These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. Timeshifter is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease, and is intended for healthy adults, 18 years of age or older. #J-18808-Ljbffr Timeshifter
