Senior Backend Engineer

Doss

DOSS Operations Cloud

DOSS is building an Operations Cloud for the real world. A modern, AI-native platform for physical product businesses to manage the flow of goods, dollars, and data in real time, across:

  • Procurement
  • Inventory
  • Orders
  • Fulfillment
  • Finance

Built to replace spreadsheet chaos and rigid, consultant-heavy ERPs. Fast time-to-value, adaptable as the business evolves.

Through our Adaptive Resource Platform (ARP) and unified operational data model, teams deploy quickly, automate workflows, and make changes without months of re-implementation.

We recently raised a $55M Series B, co-led by Madrona and Premji Invest. Participation from Intuit Ventures, Theory Ventures, General Catalyst, Contrary Capital, and Pathlight VC.

DOSS is trusted by fast-growing operators to run critical operations with speed, control, and confidence.

What You'll Do
  • Design the core EAV data model & schema-as-code platform that powers every customer's instance, balancing extreme flexibility with transactional integrity.
  • Build a Git-style version-control + migration engine capable of rolling forward/back complex schema and data changes on live production tenants in enterprise settings.
  • Engineer AI-assisted tooling that uses foundation models to propose, validate, and apply new customer schemas and workflow definitions.
  • Scale our white-labeled data warehouse (BigQuery/Snowflake-like) for high-volume, low-latency analytics and automation workloads.
  • Create Terraform-like declarative APIs & SDKs so ops teams can treat business processes as code while you ensure security, tenancy, and performance.
  • Deliver end-to-end observability & search across supply-chain, finance, and ops data—surfacing business logic in plain language through AI-native search.
  • Build Enterprise guard rails into a composable system to proactively detect anomalous behavior or risky emergent patterns.
  • Mentor and shape engineering culture, partnering with product and design to turn unsexy back-office pain into elegant, resilient systems loved by operators.
What We're Looking For

Experience

  • Expertise building large scale ETL on databases like Postgres, Elasticsearch, DuckDB, Memgraph (Graph DB), etc
  • Using cloud services to build + deploy reliable web applications
  • Working in abstractions to build complex graph-based architectures that scale

Qualities

  • Team player: you bring positivity, openness, and curiosity to the team every day.
  • Growth mindset: everything is an opportunity to learn and improve yourself, the team, and the company.
  • Craftsmanship: you care about making something of quality.
  • Pragmatic: you make the right decision based on circumstance, not theory.
  • Low Ego: you work best in collaborative environments where everyone supports the team.
What You'll Get
  • Competitive salary + meaningful equity
  • 100% Coverage for individuals Premium medical, dental & vision coverage
  • 401(k), immediate eligibility
  • Lunch in-office 5 days/week (and dinner when needed)
  • Flexible/unlimited PTO
  • Commuter (BART/MUNI/CalTrain) and equipment stipends
  • Wellness & Fitness stipend
  • Generous parental leave
  • Relocation assistance available
  • In-office culture in San Francisco
