We’re seeking a Full Stack Engineer to help build scalable, intelligent infrastructure from the ground up. This is a 0-to-1 opportunity to shape how our platform operates, integrates, and scales—combining backend services, enterprise integrations, and AI-powered capabilities.
You’ll work directly with the Principal Architect & Engineer, Data Engineer, Frontend Engineer, and Product/Design team as a foundational technical leader. This is a generalist role where you’ll flex across domains based on company priorities—not operate in a silo.
Responsibilities
Core Services & Backend
- Design and build secure, scalable backend services powering user-facing features.
- Develop APIs, authentication systems (OAuth, JWT), and distributed processing workflows.
- Implement storage, processing, and versioning systems for core product functionality.
Integrations & Data Pipelines
- Build connectors to enterprise systems and third-party software.
- Design and implement data ingestion, migration, and synchronization pipelines.
- Optimize relational and NoSQL database performance and query efficiency.
Platform & Infrastructure
- Architect secure, multi-tenant systems aligned with SOC 2 and compliance standards.
- Manage AWS infrastructure (ECS, Lambda, Aurora/RDS, S3, CloudWatch).
- Improve CI/CD pipelines, monitoring, observability, and production reliability.
- Ensure performance, scalability, and operational excellence at scale.
Frontend & Product Collaboration
- Develop frontend workflows using React and TypeScript.
- Integrate AI-powered features into user-facing workflows.
- Collaborate closely with product and design to influence roadmap decisions.
