• Collaborate with engineering leadership to raise the bar on system performance, reliability, and maintainability
• Mentor engineers across teams and foster a culture of technical ownership
• Debug and optimize distributed systems and large-scale data flows
• Act as a force multiplier — identifying gaps, proposing solutions, and enabling others to move faster
• Work with modern technologies including TypeScript, Node.js, NestJS, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, AWS, and Kubernetes

What We’re Looking For

• 12+ years of experience in software engineering, with deep backend expertise
• Proven experience designing and evolving backend architecture at scale
• Knowledge of design patterns, algorithms, and system architecture
• Experience with Node.js, NestJS (or similar), TypeScript, SQL, NoSQL, distributed systems, and caching strategies
• Strong leadership qualities — capable of setting technical direction and rallying teams around it
• Clear, concise communication skills — able to influence across functions and levels

What we offer

• Remote-first work culture with flexible hours
• Competitive compensation with performance-based bonuses
• Full benefits package including medical, dental, and 401k contributions
• High-performance gear and resources to support your productivity
• Real impact — your decisions will shape the product and the company’s direction
• Strong team of kind, talented engineers who care deeply about the product and users
• Fast feedback loops — we ship quickly and learn from real users
• Autonomy and influence — take ownership of complex systems and drive meaningful change
• A product-led company with minimal bureaucracy and high trust in our people
