Requirements

• Bachelors in a related-field preferred (Computer Science, Software Engineering, Computer Engineering)
• 8+ years of experience building cloud-native backend or platform systems.
• Proven experience delivering greenfield products or internal platforms from scratch.
• Hands-on experience building distributed systems on modern cloud infrastructure and deployment pipelines, including AI/ML or LLM-driven components in production.
• Ability to translate ambiguous business requirements into production-ready systems.
• Strong engineering fundamentals across system design, performance, reliability, and maintainability.
• Comfort operating in high-ownership, low-process, early-stage environments.

Nice To Haves

• Experience building workflow engines, orchestration systems, or DAG-based processing platforms.
• Exposure to logistics, fleet, mobility, or data-intensive SaaS platforms.
• Prior experience in founding engineer or early platform team roles.

Responsibilities

• Design and build highly scalable, resilient, and distributed systems and services, while translating complex functional and technical requirements into detailed technical architecture.
• Write high-quality and well-tested, production-grade code, and actively participate in and lead code reviews, design reviews, and day-to-day implementation work alongside the broader engineering team.
• Own systems end to end, covering design, deployment, monitoring, and oncall support; build robust observability such as metrics, alarms, and dashboards; design for failure using graceful degradation and fallback strategies; and drive root-cause analysis on production issues.
• Deliver quality features on time and on budget, and execute against project plans and commitments in an agile environment that balances speed with technical rigor.
• Partner with GMs, Operations managers and supervisors, along with cross-time-zone teams, to translate business and customer problems into technical solutions, and work directly with customers and stakeholders to reduce friction and accelerate outcomes.
• Influence technical decisions and standards within your team and immediate domain; mentor engineers across levels.
• Raise the engineering bar through design reviews, code reviews, and operational readiness.
• Guide and develop junior engineers by sharing knowledge, providing hands-on coaching through code and design reviews, and fostering their growth so they can independently deliver high-quality, well-architected solutions.

Benefits

• You will be joining a team that is literally building the future of movement.
