  • You have practical experience designing, implementing, and maintaining public APIs, plug-in ecosystems, or extensibility platforms

  • 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 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

  • 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.)
