Your work will directly influence the integrity of the platform for over 64 million monthly users!

Responsibilities:

  • Collaborative Development: Work alongside Product, Design, Data Science, and senior backend engineers in a cross-functional squad that owns its product and codebase end-to-end

  • Growing Autonomy: Take on complex backend tasks alongside senior developers, transitioning over time into delivering end-to-end features and services with minimal day-to-day supervision
  • Scale & Reliability: Build and maintain secure, distributed cloud services within an event-driven microservices architecture, focusing on code quality, testing, stability, and performance
  • Lifecycle Ownership: Participate across the development lifecycle—from technical grooming and architecture discussions to deployment, monitoring, and production maintenance
  • Continuous Improvement: Actively participate in constructive code reviews, incorporating architectural feedback from senior colleagues to elevate code health and engineering best practices

Requirements:

  • Experience: 5+ years of professional software development experience, with a solid focus on backend engineering
  • Core Tech: Strong, hands-on expertise with JavaScript, TypeScript, and Node.js
  • Cloud Infrastructure: Solid, hands-on experience with AWS services—including API Gateway, Lambda, ECS, SQS, SNS, and DynamoDB—utilizing Infrastructure as Code (Terraform or CloudFormation)
  • Architecture: Practical experience building and maintaining event-driven and microservice architectures, preferably using the Serverless Framework
  • Databases: Solid proficiency with NoSQL (DynamoDB) and relational databases (PostgreSQL)
  • DevOps & Tooling: Working experience with modern CI/CD pipelines (such as GitHub Actions), Docker, and container orchestration platforms (ECS or Kubernetes)
  • AI-Assisted Development: Hands-on experience developing with AI-assisted engineering tools to accelerate workflows and code delivery, with a strong preference for Claude Code
  • Independence & Ownership: A proven track record of taking user stories and technical specs from inception to production release, proactively resolving blockers, and working with increasing self-direction
  • Collaboration & Coachability: An eagerness to learn from and pair with senior team members, absorb architectural guidelines, and ask the right questions when tackling ambiguous technical challenges

What’s in it for you?

  • Strong community: Work alongside top professionals in a friendly, open-door environment
  • Growth focus: Take on large-scale projects with a global impact and expand your expertise
  • Tailored learning: Boost your skills with internal events (meetups, conferences, workshops), Udemy access, language courses, and company-paid certifications
  • Endless opportunities: Explore diverse domains through internal mobility, finding the best fit to gain hands-on experience with cutting-edge technologies
