Role Description

As part of our Product Engineering organization, you will play a critical role in building scalable, high-performance backend systems that directly power customer-facing products and internal platforms. Product Engineering at our company is responsible for translating product vision into reliable, secure, and production-grade software solutions.

This role sits at the intersection of product strategy and technical execution — partnering closely with Product, Design, and cross-functional engineering squads to rapidly ship impactful features while maintaining long-term architectural integrity. You’ll help shape the technical foundation of our products, ensuring they are scalable, resilient, observable, and built with engineering excellence.

Responsibilities

• API Development: Design, implement, and maintain RESTful and gRPC APIs powering internal and external applications.
• Cloud Microservices: Architect and deploy scalable microservices in AWS/GCP/Azure using Kubernetes and modern DevOps practices.
• Data Pipelines: Build real-time and batch data pipelines, ensuring data accuracy, performance, and observability (EMR on EKS).
• Collaboration: Partner with cross-functional squad members to deliver features end-to-end, from concept to production.
• System Reliability: Optimize services for scalability, resilience, and high availability.
• Engineering Excellence: Contribute to architecture discussions, enforce coding standards, and drive best practices in CI/CD, testing, and monitoring.
• Security: Embed security and compliance into backend systems and data workflows.

Qualifications

• Strong proficiency in Scala, Go, or Java and Python (experience with multiple is a plus).
• Proven experience with distributed systems, microservices, and event-driven architectures.
• Fundamental understanding of computer networking (including Wi-Fi), operating systems, and databases.
• Hands-on expertise in cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and container orchestration (Kubernetes, Docker).
• Familiarity with data engineering (ETL pipelines, real-time streaming with Kafka/Pulsar, batch processing frameworks).
• Experience with SQL and NoSQL databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Cassandra, DynamoDB).
• Solid knowledge of CI/CD pipelines, testing frameworks, and observability tools (Grafana, Prometheus, ELK).
• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to thrive in an agile, squad-based environment.

Nice To Have

• Functional programming experience in Scala.
• Experience with caching layers, distributed storage, and message queues.
• Familiarity with AI-powered developer tools such as ChatGPT, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, or similar to boost productivity.
• Contributions to open-source projects or personal projects showcasing backend innovation.

Requirements

• We are unable to offer sponsorship at this time.

Benefits

• Total Compensation package would include: anticipated base compensation range of $128,525.00 - $145,064.00 + bonus + equity + benefits.
• Benefits include: a 401k plan and a company match, basic life insurance plus unparalleled health, dental, vision and other benefits and perks.
