  • Integrate complex backend systems (billing, monetization, product enablement) into customer-facing applications.
  • Collaborate directly with founders and product owners to translate requirements into well-architected solutions.
  • Optimize application performance across the entire stack.
  • Drive technical decisions around frontend architecture, state management, and API design.
  • Influence our technical roadmap, provide mentorship and help build a strong engineering culture.
  • Step outside of your role as needed to close gaps and keep product development moving fast.
  • Ensure system scalability, performance, and reliability across the stack.

What We're Looking For

  • 5+ years of full-stack development experience in production environments.
  • Strong frontend experience with React, Next.js, and TypeScript (2+ years).
  • Senior-level backend experience with Go, TypeScript, or similar languages (3+ years).
  • Experience building and scaling APIs (REST or GraphQL).
  • Experience with database design and optimization.
  • Strong system design and architecture skills.
  • Understanding of CI/CD practices and DevOps principles.
  • Demonstrated ability to work autonomously, execute at speed, with excellent communication and collaboration skills.
  • Track record of mentoring other engineers and improving team processes.
  • Ability to thrive in a high-velocity startup and work across teams.

Nice to Have

  • Experience building or maintaining billing/monetization systems.
  • Previous startup and/or web3 experience.
