Design and implement core backend systems and integrations that power the product.
Design and build our data platform (orchestration, pipelines, developer workflows)
Create scalable systems for data ingestion, transformation, and access
Design data models and APIs that won’t collapse under growth.
Make sane decisions about schemas, indexes, migrations, and performance.
Own infrastructure for data + AI workloads (containers, orchestration, cloud services)
Enable self-serve data workflows for engineering and product teams
Improve observability, reliability, and performance across the data stack
Support AI/ML systems (embeddings, vector data, model pipelines)
Build tooling for document processing, metadata, and normalization
7+ years in data engineering, platform engineering, or backend infrastructure
A track record of shipping and owning production systems.
Strong systems thinking (not just pipelines — platform mindset)
Backend system design and API design
Data modeling and relational databases
Performance, reliability, and failure modes
Proficiency in Golang, SQL, Terraform, AWS
Comfort in a fast-moving startup environment
LLMs / RAG, vector search, fintech or regulated systems
