About The Position

Matternet is building the future of delivery with autonomous drone networks that move critical goods faster, cleaner, and at lower cost. We work with partners across healthcare, logistics, food, and retail to deliver everything from medical items to everyday essentials, safely and reliably. We're looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to join the platform team that builds and runs the backend, data, and infrastructure services behind Matternet's delivery network. You'll take ownership of significant services and carry them from design through deployment and operation, and contribute to the technical direction of the platform. This is a hands-on role in a safety-critical environment. You'll work across our Node.js/TypeScript services and GraphQL APIs, the data pipelines that move flight and telemetry data, and the tooling that keeps the fleet running.

  • Clear technical communication and cross-functional collaboration

Nice To Haves

  • Familiarity with event streaming or real-time messaging (Kafka, MQTT, or similar)
  • Experience integrating with external partner systems and APIs
  • UAV, aerospace, logistics, or other operationally critical domain experience
  • Experience using AI coding assistants to accelerate development

Responsibilities

  • Own and deliver backend services and APIs for delivery operations and partner integrations
  • Build and extend the data pipelines that ingest and process flight, vehicle, and telemetry data
  • Ensure the reliability, scalability, and security of services that support live operations
  • Drive software verification, deployment, and observability across production systems
  • Provide technical support, triaging and resolving production and field issues
  • Collaborate with onboard software, operations, product, and safety teams
