🎯 The Role: Lead Backend Engineer
We're looking for a hands-on, experienced Backend Lead who can both drive technical excellence and lead a team of engineers. This is a rare opportunity to join an early-stage startup and influence architecture, scale systems, and shape product direction at the intersection of cloud, data, and AI.
You’ll work directly with the founders and engineering leadership to design backend systems that are secure, scalable, and cost-efficient — while also mentoring and growing a high-caliber engineering team.
🛠 What You’ll Do
Lead the architecture, design, and implementation of scalable backend services for our SaaS platform
Own technical decisions across distributed systems, cloud-native workflows, and backend infrastructure
Drive performance, reliability, and observability initiatives across core platform components
Guide and mentor a growing team of backend engineers through technical reviews, goal setting, and career growth
Collaborate cross-functionally with product, frontend, and DevOps teams to deliver high-impact features
Make foundational decisions around backend technologies, frameworks, and system design
Establish and enforce best practices in software engineering, testing, and deployment
Participate in hiring, onboarding, and fostering a strong engineering culture of collaboration and excellence
Stay on top of industry trends, evaluate new technologies, and help set the technical roadmap
✅ What We’re Looking For
8+ years of backend development experience (Java, Golang, C++, or similar languages)
Proven expertise in designing and scaling distributed systems and cloud-native architectures
Track record of technical leadership, mentorship, and team-building
Deep understanding of backend fundamentals — data structures, networking, system design, and cloud scalability
Strong debugging, problem-solving, and performance optimization skills
Experience working in fast-paced product-first startup environments
High ownership mindset with strong communication and collaboration skills
Passion for building clean, scalable, and reliable systems that last
💡 Bonus Skills
Experience with cloud data warehouses: Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks, Redshift
Hands-on with AWS, GCP, or Azure in production environments
Familiarity with containers (Docker) and orchestration (Kubernetes)
Experience working with both SQL and NoSQL systems
Exposure to building SaaS platforms or developer infrastructure
Open-source contributions or active engagement in developer communities
