• Strong web development background, with experience building user-facing products — including UI, business logic, and integrations with external APIs.
• Product-minded engineering experience: you understand how technology ties back to user and business needs, not just infrastructure.
• Track record of shipping user-facing business features across product platforms, developer experience platforms, or other customer-facing surfaces.
• Solid production experience — typically 7+ years — with the depth and maturity to build and support systems in production.
• Clear understanding of how web applications work end-to-end, and how the different pieces fit together to deliver a product or business outcome.
• Depth and consistency in technical background — we value engineers who've built real expertise over time, rather than hopping across many different stacks.
• Our core platform is a Ruby on Rails monolith, with some Go services handling more focused functions alongside the Ruby/monolith team. Experience with these is a plus, but we care most about strong engineering fundamentals and product experience.
• This role isn't primarily ML/LLM-focused, so candidates whose recent experience has been mostly in ML/LLM work may not be the strongest fit here.

• 7+ years of industry experience in software engineering.
• Solid experience with Go on the backend (2+ years).
• Good debugging, analytical, and problem-solving skills.
• Understanding of core building blocks of web applications: databases, load balancers, application servers, message brokers, caching, monitoring, etc..
• Experience working with distributed systems.
• Familiarity with version control (Git) and CI/CD practices.

Nice to Have

• Experience with Ruby on Rails.
• Experience building B2B systems.
• Experience in related fields (DevOps, ML, DBA, Enterprise applications, etc.).
• Experience with third-party REST APIs at scale (request throttling, batch processing, etc.).
• Contributions to open-source projects.

Soft Skills / Personal Characteristics

• Readiness to work with teams distributed across multiple timezones.
• Strong spoken and written English.
• Curiosity and openness toward new technologies; willingness to experiment.
• Ownership mindset — comfortable taking features from design through to production and maintenance.
