This is a high-impact IC role for engineers who enjoy solving complex systems problems, mentoring teams, and influencing architecture across multiple domains.
What You’ll Do:
- Architect and scale backend services that support large-scale data
ingestion, transformation, workflow orchestration, and secure delivery pipelines. - Lead system design and technical roadmapping across projects, ensuring platforms are resilient, extensible, and aligned with long-term goals.
- Mentor senior and mid-level engineers, leading by example in code quality, documentation, and system thinking.
- Own backend performance and reliability, introducing metrics-driven approaches to scale systems efficiently and reduce operational overhead.
- Collaborate across disciplines — AI researchers, frontend, data, DevOps, and product teams — to design APIs and services with clear boundaries and SLAs.
- Champion platform evolution, identifying and driving initiatives around observability, developer tooling, scalability, and security.
- Influence technical direction across engineering by leading design
reviews, promoting best practices, and contributing to internal engineering
standards
What You Bring:
- Bachelor’s/Master’s in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field.
- 7+ years of professional experience in backend software engineering, with at
least 2+ years operating at a staff level or equivalent. - Proven experience designing and scaling backend systems in production — with a strong grasp of distributed systems, microservices, and service-oriented architecture.
- Advanced proficiency in one or more backend languages from Go, Java, and Python.
- Good understanding of cloud-native architectures (AWS, GCP, or Azure),
containerization (Docker), and orchestration (Kubernetes). - Deep knowledge of data modeling, API design (REST/GraphQL/RPC),
caching, SDKs, developer tooling and asynchronous systems (queues, event buses). - Experience implementing secure, observable, and testable systems.
- Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, and deployment tooling (GitHub workflows, CircleCI, etc.).
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills; able to drive alignment across teams.
- Experience working on data-intensive SaaS platforms, scalable backend
services, or high-throughput data processing systems. - Familiarity with event-driven and domain-driven design.
- Deep understanding of data structures, algorithms, system design, and architectural patterns.
- Background in leading technical initiatives across multiple teams and
contributing to org-level architecture. - Strong bias for action and ownership; comfortable making architectural decisions with long-term impact.
- Experience in mentoring up to SDE 3 engineers and participating in technical hiring loops.
