Job Description
• Own significant portions of our internal system portfolio application end-to-end, including architecture, design, implementation, testing, and operational excellence.
• Partner with the team to define and execute the long-term technical roadmap for the platform, ensuring it scales as a backbone system across multiple teams and initiatives.
• Design and implement backend services in Golang and frontend components in JavaScript for a SPA architecture.
• Build and maintain robust integrations with internal systems and third-party/vendor APIs, including designing resilient data ingestion, normalization, and synchronization workflows.
• Improve the system’s data model, performance characteristics, and reliability as adoption and use cases expand.
• Drive engineering quality: establish patterns for observability, testing strategy, CI/CD integration, and maintainability.
• Identify and lead meaningful refactors, migrations, and architectural improvements as the product matures.
• Conduct thorough pull request reviews and provide direct technical mentorship to engineers contributing to the system.
• Leverage AI-assisted engineering tools (e.g., Claude Code or similar) to accelerate development while maintaining high standards for correctness, security, and maintainability.
• Partner with Product, Security, and Platform stakeholders to ensure the application integrates cleanly with broader organizational workflows and technical systems.
Job Requirements
- Demonstrated experience owning a substantial, long-lived product or platform component end-to-end, including defining scope, driving architecture, coordinating cross-team dependencies, and delivering measurable outcomes.
- Strong hands-on experience in Golang and modern TypeScript (SPA frameworks), with the ability to design clean service boundaries and maintainable frontend architectures.
- Experience designing and maintaining API integrations across heterogeneous internal and external systems.
- Proven ability to lead significant refactors, migrations, or architectural improvements while maintaining system stability and delivery momentum.
- A systems-thinking mindset with a track record of improving engineering operations (testing, CI/CD, observability, code health) and balancing feature velocity with reliability and maintainability.
- Recent, meaningful hands-on coding experience and comfort performing detailed PR reviews.
- Clear communication skills and the ability to collaborate effectively with product, security, and platform engineering teams.
- Strong experience designing, deploying, and operating production systems in AWS, with practical knowledge of core services (e.g., EKS, Lambda, RDS, DynamoDB, S3, IAM, CloudWatch), networking, and least-privilege access patterns.
- Experience working with infrastructure-as-code tools (e.g., Terraform or similar) to provision and manage AWS resources, with familiarity in modular design and environment promotion workflows.
