  • Partner with frontend, mobile, product, and operations teams to deliver end-to-end capabilities.
  • Mentor teammates and contribute to high-quality code review practices.
Requirements What we're looking for
  • 5 to 8 years of backend software engineering experience.
  • A degree in computer science or another STEM field.
  • Experience at a large technology company followed by experience at a startup with a strong engineering team.
  • Proficiency in backend programming languages such as Java or Go.
  • Familiarity with relational or NoSQL databases such as PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or Redis.
  • Experience with AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure.
  • Understanding of RESTful APIs, microservices, and distributed systems.
  • Strong debugging, problem-solving, and system architecture skills.
  • A record of sustained ownership, with no more than two job changes in the past five years.
Bonus points
  • Knowledge of CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices.
  • Experience with Docker and Kubernetes.
  • Exposure to large-scale data processing or event-driven architectures.
  • Leadership in engineering projects or experience mentoring other engineers.
Benefits Compensation and benefits
  • Base salary of $176K to $242K.
  • Equity awards and an annual performance bonus.
