Design, develop, and maintain scalable, high-performing backend services that are used across multiple product teams
Build and evolve core shared backend libraries, with a strong focus on API design, backward compatibility, and developer experience
Take end-to-end ownership of the services and libraries you build, including production readiness, reliability, and maintainability
Apply software engineering best practices such as test-driven development, continuous integration, and thorough code reviews
Infrastructure and Platform Engineering
Design, evolve, and maintain infrastructure-as-code solutions that support cloud-native, microservice-based SaaS architectures
Work closely with product development teams to understand their needs and enable autonomous delivery through sensible defaults and shared tooling
Contribute to improving deployment workflows and operational practices where they directly support software delivery
Ensure that platform solutions and infrastructure changes align with security, compliance, and reliability standards
What to bring:
Mindset & ways of working
Strong ownership and get-the-job-done mindset; you take responsibility for problems end-to-end and own the solutions you deliver
Product-oriented mindset; you design, build, and support your own services and shared products with long-term ownership in mind
Continuous learning mindset, actively seeking self-development and professional growth
Curious and pragmatic adopter of AI-assisted tools and workflows to improve productivity, quality, and learning
Strong servant mindset; you enjoy serving and enabling other engineering teams through well-designed shared solutions and support
Technical experience
Solid background and hands-on experience with SaaS product architectures, including designing, building, and maintaining backend services running in cloud environments
Proficiency in server-side development; strong experience with Node.js is preferred, while experience with other backend languages and runtimes (e.g. Java, .NET, Go) is also valued
Solid understanding of RESTful APIs, microservices architecture, and experience working with relational and/or NoSQL databases
Familiarity with containerization and container orchestration platforms (Docker, ECS; Kubernetes knowledge is a plus)
Hands-on experience working with cloud-based infrastructure through automation, as part of building and operating backend services (e.g. deploying services, adjusting scaling, permissions, or networking via code rather than manual setup). AWS is preferred; experience with Azure or GCP is also acceptable. A solid conceptual understanding is required; deeper expertise is a strong plus
Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code practices and tools (such as Terraform or CloudFormation), for example reading, modifying, or extending existing IaC to support the services you own. Practical exposure is expected; deep proficiency is a plus. Willingness and ability to learn, improve, and take on more responsibility in this area over time is required
