You’ll work closely with product, frontend, and data teams to build robust APIs, architect performant systems, and deliver backend infrastructure that is secure, scalable, and maintainable.TasksIn this role you will…

• Work across the core product, integrations, and platform architecture to make our backend stronger, faster, and easier to evolve.
• Help us stabilize and improve the parts of the system that are critical including modernizing legacy code.
• Partner with engineers and product managers to shape smart, pragmatic solutions to real problems.
• Write backend code in Typescript, Node.js and work with Postgres, PL/pgSQL, and other parts of our stack with care and curiosity.
• Untangle complexity, reduce hidden risks, and leave things better than you found them, whether it’s logic, tests, or docs
• Contribute to architecture and system design decisions, and support us in moving toward cleaner, more maintainable patterns.
• Be part of building a healthy engineering culture where sharing learnings, asking for help, and challenging ideas are all welcome.

Requirements

• 5+ years of backend experience, ideally in environments where change is constant and architecture is evolving
• Solid hands-on experience with NestJS (or similar frameworks like Express), and confidence building APIs that are robust and maintainable
• Comfort working with PostgreSQL, designing schemas, writing queries, and tuning performance when needed
• Familiarity with cloud infrastructure (Azure, AWS, GCP, or similar), and an understanding of what it means to build resilient backend systems
• Experience working in or around legacy codebases, you’ve debugged things you didn’t build, and know how to refactor without breaking trust
• Exposure to event-driven patterns or asynchronous systems, or the curiosity to learn them on the job
• An understanding of the challenges (and trade-offs) in monolith-to-microservices transitions
• A mindset geared toward code quality, testing, and observability, not perfection, but maintainability
• Experience owning parts of a larger system, even in the face of ambiguity or missing documentation
• Clear communication and a collaborative spirit, you share context, ask questions, and don’t wait for perfect clarity before taking action
• Bonus: You think about why something is being built, not just how, and you care about creating real-world impact through technology
