·      Architect and implement integrations with internal and external systems (ERP, payment platforms, third-party services)

·      Model complex business domains and optimize database performance for scalability and efficiency

·      Build and support event-driven and message-based architectures to improve system reliability and performance

·      Collaborate with cross-functional teams including product, engineering, and business stakeholders to deliver impactful features

·      Troubleshoot production issues, identify root causes, and implement performance improvements

·      Write clean, maintainable, and testable code while adhering to engineering best practices

·      Contribute to technical design discussions, system architecture decisions, and mentorship of team members

·      Continuously identify opportunities to improve system efficiency, reduce latency, and eliminate technical debt

 

Qualifications & Skills

·      5+ years of experience building backend systems in production environments

·      Strong programming fundamentals in modern languages such as C#, .NET, Java, Python, or similar

·      Experience designing and building RESTful APIs

·      Solid understanding of relational databases, query optimization, and data modeling

·      Experience working with distributed systems including message queues, caching strategies, and service-based architectures

·      Familiarity with cloud platforms such as Azure, AWS, or GCP

·      Proven ability to build, scale, and optimize high-performance applications

Preferred Qualifications

·      Experience with search technologies such as Elasticsearch or similar platforms

·      Exposure to AI/ML-powered search, vector databases, or semantic search concepts

·      Experience designing fault-tolerant systems (retry logic, circuit breakers, graceful degradation)

·      Background in enterprise or B2B SaaS environments

·      Experience supporting globally distributed systems and multi-region deployments

·      Experience integrating with ERP platforms (e.g., NetSuite, SAP)

·      Familiarity with real-time systems (WebSockets, SignalR, etc.)

·      Experience with observability tools including logging, monitoring, and distributed tracing

Work Environment

·      Collaborative, fast-paced engineering environment with a strong focus on innovation and scalability

·      Agile development methodology with frequent releases and feature enhancements

·      High-visibility role with direct impact on system performance and business operations

What Success Looks Like

·      Builds and delivers scalable backend systems that support high transaction volumes

·      Improves system performance, efficiency, and reliability through thoughtful engineering

·      Contributes to a high-performing engineering team through collaboration and mentorship

·      Successfully delivers new features and enhancements that drive business impact
