  • Design PostgreSQL schemas, migrations, and complex queries for materials, quotes, orders, and supplier relationships.

  • Build reliable event-driven pipelines for order state management, notifications, and cross-system synchronization.

  • Implement caching and rate limiting to support dependable external API integrations.

  • Establish monitoring, alerting, and observability practices, and own incident response for backend systems.

What We're Looking For

  • Staff or Senior Staff-level experience and a track record of building products and systems from the ground up, with 4 to 12 years of professional experience.

  • Professional TypeScript experience and recent hands-on experience with Next.js, plus full-stack experience across TypeScript, Python, and Go.

  • A strong data engineering background, including data pipelines and large-scale data processing.

  • Hands-on AI development or AI infrastructure experience, including production LLM products, LLMOps, model evaluation, and familiarity with the broader AI/ML lifecycle.

  • Experience with AWS or other cloud infrastructure, including security and data privacy, and with owning internal tools and systems end to end.
