Architect the Core: Drive the end-to-end design and development of backend services, primarily using Golang (with some Python). You will prioritize high scalability and reliability for a system that never sleeps.
Build for Automation: Design and evolve APIs and integration logic. You will balance the startup need for rapid iteration with the engineering discipline required for robust, maintainable systems.
Own the Infrastructure: Take the lead on infrastructure-as-code using Terraform on AWS/ECS. You will make the critical decisions regarding performance, security, and deployment pipelines.
Innovate with AI: Partner directly with the Founding Team to implement AI-driven product features and distributed architectures. If you are interested in Event-Driven Systems (e.g., Temporal), this is your playground.

Experience: 7+ years of backend engineering experience.
Tech Stack: Deep proficiency in Golang is essential. Proficiency in Python is highly preferred.
Infrastructure: Strong grasp of Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform) and AWS cloud services (ECS, Lambda, etc.). Familiarity with modern CI/CD pipelines is a must.
Architecture: A proven track record of delivering large-scale APIs, microservices, or event-driven systems in a B2B SaaS environment. Experience with Temporal is a massive plus.
Mindset: You have a history of ownership. You have led complex projects from concept to deployment and can translate business goals into technical realities.

Top-Tier Healthcare: Comprehensive medical (Platinum PPO), dental, and vision coverage—100% paid for employees, plus subsidized coverage for dependents.
Flexibility: A "best of both worlds" setup. Work fully remotely, or utilize the vibrant office space in Seattle if you prefer in-person collaboration.
Competitive Compensation: A salary range of $140k–$180k, commensurate with experience and location.
