Senior Backend Engineer (Remote, Americas & Europe)

(Remote — Americas or Europe)

At Nango (YC W23), we’re building the modern way for developers to build product integrations. Companies run on an ever-growing stack of software, and meaningful automations require these tools to work seamlessly together. That only happens through integrations.

We’re the leading open-source platform for product integrations. More than 100 paying customers, including Replit, Linux, Vapi, rely on Nango today. We’re a multi-million ARR company with a team of 10 from AWS, Snyk, Netlify, Uber, Samsara, etc. We're growing fast through inbound and product-led adoption.

We’re backed by YC, Gradient and executives from Cloudflare, Retool, Notion, etc. Adoption is especially strong among fast-growing AI companies, where integrations are the first step to connecting agents with the real world.
