Remote Backend Jobs

Responsibilities

• Identify and execute improvements to the codebase that make it easier for both humans and AI agents to move fast and ship safely.
• Work with a group of senior engineers in a low-process environment powered by trust and autonomy.
• Drive decisions and consensus asynchronously with thoughtful documentation and specs.
• Own features end-to-end - from the backend systems to the partner-facing surface. You'll primarily work on the backend, but expect to use AI tooling to move across the stack as needed. We care that you can ship a complete feature, not that you can write production-grade React from memory.
• Architect scalable solutions and foundational patterns that let us efficiently launch new partner experiences.
• Work directly with PMs and business partners to define and refine our roadmap. Your voice and technical vision matter.
• Collaborate with a diverse group of people, giving and receiving feedback for growth.

About you

• A natural drive to fearlessly dive into an unknown codebase and deliver results fast.
• Strong product thinking - your conception of quality and architecture is anchored in the customer experience, not in technical elegance for its own sake.
• The ability to direct AI agents and automated workflows to build and maintain complex systems, and the judgment to know when to step in and when to let them run.
• Experience designing the guardrails and feedback loops that keep AI-assisted development productive and reliable.
• Experience with, or a mastery-level willingness to learn, distributed system development in Scala.
• The ability to articulate not just how you'd solve a problem, but why, and what tradeoffs you're accepting.
