Job Description

• Own major parts of the Managed Sync architecture — from ingestion pipelines to storage and APIs — and drive its evolution as we scale. • Design, build, and operate backend services for Managed Sync using TypeScript (NestJS), Postgres, Redis, Kafka, and Kubernetes. • Implement new syncs and integrations across file storage, document, CRM, and other SaaS APIs — including auth, pagination, rate limits, and webhooks. • Design and evolve Synced Object schemas and data models that can represent large, complex external systems in a reliable, queryable way. • Build robust batch and incremental sync flows: backfills, change tracking, retries, dead-letter handling, and idempotent processing. • Raise the bar on reliability and observability: logging, metrics, tracing, dashboards, and SLOs, and use them to guide engineering priorities. • Partner with product, design, and GTM to deeply understand customer use cases (RAG ingestion, analytics replicas, bidirectional sync) and turn them into technical designs and roadmaps. • Collaborate with the Permissions / auth teams to ensure that synced data always respects native permissions and never leaks across tenants. • Provide technical leadership: mentor other engineers, influence engineering practices, and be a go-to person for hard debugging and design decisions.

Job Requirements

  • 8+ years of experience building and operating backend systems in production, ideally with TypeScript / Node.js (NestJS or similar framework)
  • Deep experience with Postgres:
  • Data modeling for large, evolving datasets.
  • Query optimization, indexing, and performance tuning.
  • Strong practical experience using Redis for caching, coordination, and rate limiting.
  • Hands-on experience with event-driven architectures and technologies like Kafka:
  • Topic design, schema evolution, retries, DLQs, and handling out-of-order events.
  • Solid experience shipping and debugging services in Kubernetes in a cloud environment.
  • Significant experience integrating with third-party APIs:
  • OAuth2, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, webhooks reliability, and handling API quirks.
  • You’ve previously owned multiple integrations or a connector framework, not just “called an API once”.
  • A strong reliability and correctness mindset:
  • You think in terms of failure modes, idempotency, backoff and retry strategies, and graceful degradation.
  • Proven track record of technical leadership:
  • Driving cross-team projects, influencing design decisions, and mentoring other engineers.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication, and a product mindset — you care about the “why” behind what you build and can translate between business requirements and technical design.

Benefits

  • A brand new laptop and any additional equipment you need to do your best work
  • Top-of-the-line health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Paid, gender-neutral parental leave (including adoption and foster placement)
  • Flexible working hours (we focus on outcomes, not time online)
  • Unlimited PTO, with a minimum encouraged amount per year
  • Annual team retreats
  • Optional relocation support to Los Angeles, CA if you’d like to work closer to part of the team
  • Interview accommodations available upon request
