Job Description


Software Engineer (Backend Focus)

Location: Fully Remote

Time Zone Requirement: Must meaningfully overlap with U.S. Pacific, Mountain, Central, or Eastern time zones

Team: Engineering

Reports To: Head of Engineering

About The Company

We are a venture-backed B2B SaaS company building a new category of AI-driven analytics and coaching software for sales and post-sales teams.

Our platform goes beyond traditional dashboards by uncovering hidden work, revealing true Cost to Serve, and connecting effort directly to outcomes — enabling modern organizations to operate more efficiently and scale with clarity.

Founded in 2022 and backed by institutional funding, we are a small, fast-moving team building high-impact analytics and AI-powered infrastructure for modern businesses.

About The Role

We’re hiring a Backend-Focused Software Engineer to join our core engineering team.

This role is ideal for engineers who enjoy designing backend systems, building reliable integrations, working with data-heavy workflows, and owning features from concept to production.

While your strength will be backend development, this is not a siloed role. You’ll take end-to-end ownership of features — ensuring backend logic connects cleanly to frontend behavior and delivers a complete, production-ready experience.

You’ll help shape the technical foundation of an analytics platform where reliability, scalability, and correctness truly matter.

What You’ll Do

Backend Systems & Architecture

  • Design, build, and maintain backend services, APIs, and data models
  • Develop scalable systems that support analytics and AI-driven workflows
  • Ensure data integrity, correctness, and performance across the platform
  • Improve reliability, observability, and maintainability of existing systems

Feature Ownership

  • Own features end-to-end, from schema design through delivery
  • Collaborate with frontend engineers to ensure accurate UX behavior
  • Validate that backend logic surfaces correctly in user-facing workflows

Integrations & Data Pipelines

  • Build and maintain integrations with third-party platforms (CRMs, communication tools, internal systems)
  • Design resilient ingestion pipelines and background workflows
  • Handle edge cases, failures, and data inconsistencies gracefully

Engineering Collaboration

  • Participate in architecture and technical design discussions
  • Contribute to roadmap planning and technical tradeoff decisions
  • Review code and uphold engineering quality standards

Engineering Excellence

  • Write clean, testable, production-quality code
  • Continuously improve performance, scalability, and system health
  • Operate comfortably in a fast-moving, evolving codebase

What You Bring

Required Experience

  • 4-6 years of professional software engineering experience
  • Strong backend experience in production environments
  • Proven ability to ship features independently
  • Solid understanding of APIs, databases, schema design, and performance tradeoffs
  • Experience working within an existing production codebase
  • Comfort operating in small teams with evolving architecture
  • Strong problem-solving skills and ownership mindset

Technical Stack Experience

Experience with some or all of the following:

  • Ruby on Rails
  • PostgreSQL
  • TypeScript
  • React (for light frontend contribution)

(You do not need to be an expert in every tool — strong backend fundamentals matter most.)

Nice to Have

  • Experience working with analytics pipelines or large datasets
  • Familiarity with Python and AI/ML-adjacent services
  • Experience with cloud infrastructure (GCP preferred)
  • Exposure to background jobs, queues, and event-driven systems
  • Experience integrating with third-party APIs (CRMs, communication platforms)
  • Prior early-stage startup experience
  • Interest in AI- and data-driven product development

What This Role Is Not

  • Not a frontend-only role
  • Not a DevOps-only role
  • Not a narrow ticket executor

This is a backend-heavy senior IC role with real product ownership.

Why Join

  • End-to-End Ownership: Own features from backend logic to production impact
  • Meaningful Technical Problems: Work on analytics, data modeling, and AI-adjacent systems
  • Early-Stage Influence: Help shape architecture and engineering practices
  • Product-Driven Culture: Engineers actively influence roadmap decisions
  • Small, High-Caliber Team: Low bureaucracy, high trust, high impact
  • Long-Term Growth: Expand responsibility as the platform and team scale

Equal Opportunity

We are an equal opportunity employer and are committed to building a diverse, inclusive, and respectful environment for all team members.
