Role Overview
We’re looking for Backend Engineers to lead the design and delivery of SaaS products that are powered by data, machine learning, and AI. You’ll be the senior technical owner for one or more product areas, working across backend, systems, and cloud infrastructure to:
- Ship high-quality data/ML/AI powered features end-to-end
- Integrate data/ML/AI capabilities into real customer workflows
- Raise the bar on design, reliability, performance, and engineering practices across the org
This is a hands-on senior role: you’ll write code, review designs, mentor senior engineers, and collaborate closely with product, design, data, and ML teams.
What You’ll Do
- Own the architecture and technical direction for key product areas in a multi-tenant SaaS platform.
- Work with product, design, and data/ML teams to translate business problems into simple, robust technical solutions.
- Drive the evolution of our system architecture (APIs, services, data flows, auth, tenancy, integrations) as the product and customer base scale.
End-to-End Full-Stack Product Delivery
- Build and maintain backend services and APIs (REST/GraphQL/gRPC) that power those experiences.
- Deliver backend features end-to-end including data schemas and business logic.
- Collaborate with UX and product to ensure responsive and delightful product experiences.
Data / ML / AI Integration
- Partner with data scientists and MLOps / platform teams to embed data, ML and AI capabilities into the product (recommendations, categorization, automation, routing, insights, LLM-powered workflows, etc.).
- Design APIs, data contracts, and UX flows that make ML/AI features reliable, understandable, and safe for customers.
- Ensure telemetry and feedback loops are in place so data/ML teams can measure performance, iterate models, and improve outcomes.
- Help define and implement guardrails for AI features (fallbacks, explanations, error handling, permissions).
Operational Excellence
- Champion operability: monitoring, alerting, logging, and runbooks for services you own.
- Lead efforts to improve performance, scalability, and resilience of critical paths (e.g., onboarding, reporting, AI-assisted workflows).
- Work with security and compliance to ensure features meet requirements around authentication, authorization, data privacy, and multi-tenancy.
- Participate in and help evolve on-call / incident response processes as a technical leader.
Engineering Excellence & Leadership
- Act as a technical leader, mentor senior engineers, and drive best practices across the organization.
