We are expanding our core product engineering group to scale our distributed platform. In this role, you will own features end-to-end—from system design and schema modeling through production deployment and telemetry. You will work with high autonomy alongside senior and staff engineers who prioritize pragmatic architecture, comprehensive testing, and low-friction developer tooling. If you want to solve complex latency and throughput challenges without micromanagement, this is the environment for you.
Responsibilities
Design, build, and maintain production services and APIs handling millions of daily events.
Write clean, test-covered code with an emphasis on maintainability, reliability, and system performance.
Own technical initiatives from initial RFC and technical spec to production rollout and observability.
Deconstruct complex product requirements into scoped, incremental engineering milestones.
Review pull requests rigorously, provide constructive architectural feedback, and participate in an on-call rotation.
Requirements
3+ years of professional software development experience shipping production web applications.
Strong proficiency in at least one modern backend language (e.g., Go, TypeScript/Node.js, Python, or Java).
Demonstrated experience with relational databases (e.g., PostgreSQL), including data modeling, indexing strategies, and query optimization.
Working knowledge of distributed systems patterns, RESTful/gRPC API design, and asynchronous message queues.
Disciplined approach to automated testing (unit, integration) and continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD).
Exceptional written communication skills, critical for an asynchronous, documentation-first culture.
Nice-to-Haves
Experience operating containerized services using Docker and Kubernetes in AWS or GCP.
Familiarity with event streaming platforms such as Apache Kafka or AWS Kinesis.
Working knowledge of modern frontend frameworks (e.g., React, TypeScript) to build full-stack interfaces when needed.
Prior experience working effectively in a fully remote, globally distributed engineering organization.
What We Offer
Competitive base salary ($135,000 – $165,000 USD) and meaningful early-stage equity.
Fully remote work model with home office equipment stipend ($2,500 upfront).
Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage with 100% of employee premiums covered.
Flexible paid time off policy with a required 4-week minimum per year.
$3,000 annual professional development stipend for conferences, books, and courses.
