Until further notice

Requirements

You have practical experience designing, implementing, and maintaining public APIs, plug-in ecosystems, or extensibility platforms
You have deep experience with modern stack — we use Node.js, TypeScript, GraphQL, and MongoDB
You’ve led backend projects from start to finish — shaping architecture, guiding trade-offs, and delivering reliable systems that support real-world product needs

You’ve worked across teams to drive platform or infrastructure improvements — whether simplifying service boundaries, improving observability, or evolving internal tooling
You’ve contributed to collaborative or multi-user product features, and you understand the data, consistency, and UX considerations that come with them
You’re fluent with modern AI tools — not just using them for code generation, but integrating them into how you debug, document, explore ideas, and reduce manual effort
You care about performance, scale, and clean abstractions — and know how to measure, prioritize, and improve them pragmatically
You’ve influenced engineering culture through code reviews, mentoring, or leading by example, and you’re comfortable being a resource for others on architectural decisions
You have a personal stake in the world of content creation

Be part of a small, dedicated squad within the Channels and Platform team responsible for Public API development
Lead the development of the backend systems for the Buffer Platform. This includes creating an API for core Buffer features, internal services to ensure Public API stability, availability, high performance, and developer tools for platform clients
Improve and evolve our internal systems — helping consolidate services into a monorepo, improve tooling and observability, and reduce complexity across the board
Collaborate closely with engineers, product, and design to scope work, explore trade-offs, and find the simplest path to something great
Make steady improvements to performance, reliability, and data modeling, helping us scale quality over time
Participate in on-call rotation (all engineers take on a 24/7 week-long shift once a quarter on average) and day-to-day maintenance work required to keep the lights on the systems owned by the team (this includes bug fixing, addressing security vulnerabilities, incident follow-ups, etc.)
