Responsibilities
- Own the performance and scalability of our data layer as we onboard larger and more complex organizations — indexing, query optimization, read replicas, partitioning, and connection pooling — so onboarding and day-to-day usage stay fast and reliable even at enterprise scale
- Own our asynchronous and background-processing infrastructure (e.g., Celery), keeping it healthy, observable, and able to keep pace with growing data volume
- Design, build, and ship net-new, revenue-driving features across the full stack — from messaging and bulk-sending capabilities to richer reporting, analytics, and email experiences
- Help reinforce and extend our move to a server-side, HTMX-based frontend, improving both developer velocity and front-end reliability
- Design, build, and maintain scalable web applications used by nonprofit organizations around the world
- Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to understand user needs and translate them into technical solutions
- Write clean, testable, and efficient code across the frontend and backend
- Contribute to architectural discussions and help drive technical decision-making across the platform
- Participate in code reviews, and help foster a culture of learning and improvement
- Own the reliability, performance, and observability of the systems you work on — instrument them well, set meaningful alerts, and treat production health as a first-class part of the work
- Provide thoughtful feedback on technology choices as we evaluate changes across our stack
- Support a culture of experimentation, iteration, and continuous delivery
