About the role
Key responsibilities & impact- Take ownership of complex backend systems from design through production — including architecture, implementation, and long-term maintenance.
- Lead technical discussions, drive engineering decisions, and document trade-offs clearly for the team.
- Mentor junior and mid-level engineers through code reviews, pairing sessions, and structured feedback.
- Identify systemic weaknesses in our infrastructure, propose improvements, and execute on them with minimal direction.
- Collaborate across engineering, product, and data to align technical direction with business goals.
- Drive improvements to observability, reliability, and performance across our backend stack.
- Contribute to hiring by participating in technical interviews and helping define the engineering bar.
Requirements
What you’ll need- 7+ years of backend engineering experience, with a track record of owning critical systems in production.
- Deep expertise in Java (Spring Boot) and strong familiarity with Python; comfortable navigating a polyglot codebase.
- Proven experience designing distributed systems — event-driven architecture, microservices, data pipelines.
- Strong command of PostgreSQL and experience working with cloud-native infrastructure on AWS.
- Someone who has been through hypergrowth or scale challenges and has the scars and instincts to show for it.
- A multiplier: you make the engineers around you better through your presence, feedback, and technical clarity.
- Comfortable operating in ambiguity — you can shape requirements, not just execute on them.
