📋 Description

• Design and build scalable services and APIs to drive existing and new features for web applications. • Architect and maintain robust backend systems, database models, and infrastructure that power our platform. • Analyze product requirements and produce high-quality, production-ready code with a focus on system reliability and performance. • Maintain the health of our systems and codebase, refactor and make improvements, and keep our systems robust and resilient. • Jump into frontend code when needed to support the team and ship features end-to-end. • Be autonomous. You'll take full ownership of your work, and you take responsibility and accountability for every last detail, every step of the way. • Be a collaborator. You'll work with other engineers and cross-functional partners in product and design to build a world-class product and lead new initiatives to improve our user experience. • Write clear specs to ensure product/code quality for stress-free deployment. • Drive large releases to production on a continuous deployment cadence.

🎯 Requirements

• 5+ years of relevant experience in backend development with some frontend exposure. • Strong fundamentals in API design, database architecture, and distributed systems. • Expertise in Typescript/Node and backend frameworks. • Comfort with React and frontend technologies—you can jump in and contribute when needed, even if it's not your primary focus. • An intuitive understanding of what it takes to create performant, scalable systems that power delightful user experiences. • Strong communication skills that help you influence product direction and help collaborative visions come to life. • Extreme bias toward action and execution. You get antsy if you're not writing code, improving the codebase, and vigilantly enhancing the systems that represent the big-thinking work.
