Why This Role Exists

We're looking for a Staff Backend Engineer to help our client build new features and improve their platform's overall quality and performance.

They offer a workforce management solution for businesses that engage independent contractors and help customers onboard workers compliantly, pay them quickly, automate back-office work, and scale their fleets.

Because their product is still early in its lifecycle, this is a high-impact role for a self-motivated engineer who thrives in a startup environment and wants to help them scale.

What You'll Drive
  • Manage increasing system complexity through effective system design, clear processes, and thorough documentation
  • Identify and solve relevant platform bottlenecks before they start affecting customers
  • Help other engineers level up their skills through mentoring and coaching
  • Write maintainable, reliable, and testable code for the platform
  • Collaborate daily with the engineering team to plan complex tasks, perform code reviews, and pair program
Who You Are
  • You have 5+ years of experience with NodeJS, relational databases, and Kubernetes.
  • You bring 3+ years of experience with TypeScript and Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
  • You have a proven track record of mentoring and coaching other engineers.
  • You possess a deep understanding of organizational and system needs as a company scales, with extensive experience in technical documentation.
  • You have experience integrating 3rd-party APIs (such as payment providers or CRMs).
  • You are self-motivated and adaptable, with a startup mindset focused on ownership.
  • You have good spoken and written English and are located in a European timezone (Poland westward preferred) or EST to ensure good collaboration overlap with the US.
How You'll Work

You will be part of an 11-person engineering team, working with other members and interacting directly with stakeholders. They have a fairly light process, which allows for much freedom, but they expect strong ownership of outcomes in return.

What You'll Get
  • Annual salary of $100,000 - $120,000 (based on interview performance)
  • Company equity
  • Work from anywhere
  • Flexible work hours
  • Unlimited PTO
What Happens Next

Here's a brief overview of our process:

  1. Application Review
  2. Introductory Call with a recruiter from All The Hires.
  3. Technical Interview with the Head of Engineering.

We look forward to reviewing your application.
