Description:

Senior Backend Engineer (Remote – U.S.)

If you love building platforms that make a real impact — not just adding another button — this is your kind of role.

We're looking for a Senior Backend Engineer who's excited to roll up their sleeves and design, build, and ship features that power core systems at scale. You'll join a small, collaborative engineering team working on high-impact backend projects with plenty of autonomy and technical ownership.

What You'll Do

  • Design and implement backend systems that handle complex data and scale efficiently

  • Lead key platform initiatives from concept to deployment

  • Collaborate cross-functionally with product, sales, and support teams to deliver customer-focused features

  • Communicate effectively with engineers across multiple time zones and backgrounds

  • Work in an environment that values ownership, curiosity, and shipping clean, maintainable code

What We're Looking For

  • 5+ years of backend development experience (Python, Node.js/TypeScript, Go, or similar)

  • A strong programmer who wants to code — this is a hands-on technical role

  • Experience delivering large, complex features or systems

  • Excellent communication skills and comfort collaborating across distributed teams

  • Familiarity with large-scale data systems (ETL/ELT, event-driven systems, database design) a plus

  • Some UI or frontend experience is a bonus, but the focus is 100% backend-first

  • Experience with AWS, Postgres, or Clickhouse is nice to have, not required

Why You'll Love It

  • Autonomy: You'll own your projects end to end — design, build, deploy

  • Impact: Work on foundational systems that directly shape the product's success

  • Remote-first: Work from anywhere in the U.S. (East Coast hours preferred)

  • Growth: Opportunity to evolve into technical leadership and mentorship over time

If you're a backend engineer who thrives on solving tough problems, values clarity over chaos, and loves turning complex ideas into clean code — let's talk!
