  • Take projects from problem definition through implementation and launch with limited direction.

What We're Looking For

  • Five to eight years of backend software engineering experience.

  • Experience shipping consumer-facing backend features end-to-end and measuring their business impact.
  • Experience in a fast-growing startup or another high-performing engineering environment, with the ability to deliver independently.
  • Background with data-driven systems such as matchmaking, fraud prevention, or recommendations is helpful.
  • Experience with real-time features, payments, consumer gaming, CI/CD, or experimentation platforms is valuable.
  • A degree in computer science or a related technical field is preferred.
