What you'll do
- Design, build, and operate the distributed backend systems behind our recommendations pipeline and our AI workflow execution engine, primarily in Python and TypeScript/Node.js.
- Own and harden the infrastructure our products run on, including our AI workflow platform on AWS and Kubernetes: improving reliability, observability, and scalability, not just consuming infra built elsewhere.
- Strengthen how our systems handle failure: eventing and streaming, retries, backpressure, and recovery, so a single outage doesn't turn into days of replay.
- Reduce single points of failure across our infrastructure and share operational and on-call ownership, so no critical system depends on any one person.
- Design clean service and API boundaries, and write and optimize the MongoDB data models and queries that power recommendations.
- Leverage state-of-the-art AI tooling to increase your impact, and help the team build reliable systems on top of non-deterministic, LLM-backed components.
- Partner with product engineers, PMs, and designers to ship end-to-end, and raise the bar on tested, observable, maintainable code and thoughtful design docs.
- Mentor engineers across the team on backend and reliability practices as we shift the team's center of gravity toward distributed systems.
What they require
- BA/BS degree or equivalent experience
- Business-level fluency to read, write and speak in English
- Have 5+ years of experience building and operating backend systems in production, ideally in scalable, multi-tenant SaaS.
- Have real depth in distributed systems: concurrency, asynchronous and eventually-consistent processing, queues or streaming, and designing for failure rather than assuming the happy path.
- Are strong in Python and/or TypeScript/Node.js, and comfortable modeling data in MongoDB or a comparable database.
- Are hands-on with cloud infrastructure and DevOps: AWS, containers, Kubernetes, CI/CD, and observability (metrics, logging, tracing).
- Value testing, documentation, and reliability as much as shipping features, and consistently communicate trade-offs to meet both technical and business goals.
- Are comfortable with ambiguity, scope solutions with your teammates, and get energy from mentoring earlier-career engineers.
- Stay curious and open to growth — demonstrating a proactive embrace of AI, and actively building and applying fluency in emerging technologies to elevate how we work, drive faster outcomes, and expand collective impact.
- Preferred: A track record of taking a service from flaky to boringly reliable.
