Why This Role
We're looking for a senior backend engineer or technical leader who loves solving hard problems and building products customers genuinely value. This is a high-ownership seat in a lean startup: you'll set technical direction, mentor engineers, and ship production-grade systems — with real influence over what gets built and how.
What You'll Do
- Own backend architecture. Design, build, and maintain robust, scalable APIs and backend services that support rapid feature iteration.
- Raise the engineering bar. Run PR reviews, unblock junior engineers,
and push the team toward cleaner, more reliable code.
- Drive technical decisions. Lead architecture discussions and help the team navigate complex engineering trade-offs.
- Optimize for scale. Improve performance, latency, throughput, and reliability as the product grows.
- Partner cross-functionally. Work closely with product, design, and leadership to turn requirements into shipped impact.
- Stay customer-obsessed. Understand why something is being built, not just how — we succeed when our customers succeed.
What You Bring
- 6+ years of backend engineering experience, with deep, hands-on expertise in Node.js, TypeScript, Express.js, and PostgreSQL — non-negotiable.
- 2+ years leading engineers — mentoring, code review, and driving technical execution.
- Solid system design instincts: you think in terms of scalability, reliability, and maintainability, not just "does it work."
- Proven experience desig
