CARTO

Backend Engineer

• Own the design and evolution of core backend services that power workflow execution, scheduling and orchestration across multiple cloud data warehouses.
• Translate visual DAGs into efficient, warehouse-native SQL and procedural code, pushing computation down to where the data lives.
• Build and maintain integrations with BigQuery, Snowflake, Databricks, Redshift, Azure Oracle, Postgres and Synapse — including connection management, query execution, error handling and cost/performance optimization.
• Extend the component catalog with new analytical building blocks and design the SDK that lets customers and partners contribute their own.
• Improve reliability and observability of long-running, scheduled and event-triggered jobs: retries, idempotency, lineage, logging, metrics.
• Collaborate closely with Product, Frontend, Data Engineering and QA to ship features end-to-end, from API design to UX behavior.
• Integrate AI tools pragmatically throughout your development workflow — not as a checkbox, but as a genuine productivity multiplier in how you design, build, and test.
