What You'll Do
- Design, build, and optimize GraphQL APIs that power real-time, data-rich interfaces.
- Work across the data platform — ingesting, transforming, and querying massive datasets, primarily in BigQuery.
- Develop backend systems in JavaScript/TypeScript (Node.js) with Python components as needed.
- Partner closely with frontend, AI, and product teams to support weekly sprint cycles and deliver new features quickly.
- Build infrastructure for data ingestion, enrichment, and delivery across internal and customer-facing tools.
- Optimize performance and scalability of backend systems as the platform evolves.
- Collaborate on architectural decisions and shape engineering best practices.
What We're Looking For
- 5+ years of backend development experience, ideally in fast-paced product environments.
- Proficiency in GraphQL, BigQuery, and JavaScript/TypeScript (Node.js).
- Comfortable working with structured and unstructured data.
- Experience building APIs and services that are performant, secure, and scalable.
- Familiarity with Python — especially for data manipulation or integration tasks.
- Strong collaboration skills and a bias for shipping.
- Startup mindset — proactive, resourceful, and thrives in ambiguity.
Nice to Have
- Experience integrating with LLM or agent-based systems.
- Built systems for sales intelligence, customer data platforms, or internal tools.
- Familiarity with cloud infra (GCP/AWS), observability tools, and CI/CD workflows.

- Open-source contributions or personal backend/data projects.
