Full Description

Job Description: • Own significant portions of our internal system portfolio application end-to-end, including architecture, design, implementation, testing, and operational excellence. • Partner with the team to define and execute the long-term technical roadmap for the platform, ensuring it scales as a backbone system across multiple teams and initiatives. • Design and implement backend services in Golang and frontend components in JavaScript for a SPA architecture. • Build and maintain robust integrations with internal systems and third-party/vendor APIs, including designing resilient data ingestion, normalization, and synchronization workflows. • Improve the system’s data model, performance characteristics, and reliability as adoption and use cases expand. • Drive engineering quality: establish patterns for observability, testing strategy, CI/CD integration, and maintainability. • Identify and lead meaningful refactors, migrations, and architectural improvements as the product matures. • Conduct thorough pull request reviews and provide direct technical mentorship to engineers contributing to the system. • Leverage AI-assisted engineering tools (e.g., Claude Code or similar) to accelerate development while maintaining high standards for correctness, security, and maintainability. • Partner with Product, Security, and Platform stakeholders to ensure the application integrates cleanly with broader organizational workflows and technical systems. Requirements: • Demonstrated experience owning a substantial, long-lived product or platform component end-to-end, including defining scope, driving architecture, coordinating cross-team dependencies, and delivering measurable outcomes. • Strong hands-on experience in Golang and modern TypeScript (SPA frameworks), with the ability to design clean service boundaries and maintainable frontend architectures. • Experience designing and maintaining API integrations across heterogeneous internal and external systems. • Proven ability to lead significant refactors, migrations, or architectural improvements while maintaining system stability and delivery momentum. • A systems-thinking mindset with a track record of improving engineering operations (testing, CI/CD, observability, code health) and balancing feature velocity with reliability and maintainability. • Recent, meaningful hands-on coding experience and comfort performing detailed PR reviews. • Clear communication skills and the ability to collaborate effectively with product, security, and platform engineering teams. • Strong experience designing, deploying, and operating production systems in AWS, with practical knowledge of core services (e.g., EKS, Lambda, RDS, DynamoDB, S3, IAM, CloudWatch), networking, and least-privilege access patterns. • Experience working with infrastructure-as-code tools (e.g., Terraform or similar) to provision and manage AWS resources, with familiarity in modular design and environment promotion workflows. Benefits: • health insurance • 401(k) matching • flexible work hours • paid time off • remote work options
