About the Role

We are hiring a Senior Backend Engineer (SDE III) to work on and help evolve critical backend systems, in close collaboration with the CTO and core engineering team.

This is a high-impact engineering role. The systems you work on are production-critical and affect thousands of users. You will not be operating in isolation - architectural and technical decisions are made collaboratively, with a strong focus on reliability, performance, and correctness.

Responsibilities

• Design and evolve large-scale backend systems in collaboration with the CTO and core team
• Own backend services from development through production and scaling, with team support
• Contribute to decisions around performance, scalability, and reliability
• Review code and contribute to improving overall engineering standards
• Improve system observability, fault tolerance, and resilience

• Ability to understand unfamiliar codebases and production systems with guidance and context
• Solid engineering fundamentals that translate across stacks
• Thoughtful participation in technical discussions and decision-making
