Our Auctions team doesn't just "list items"-we build the high-stakes, high-concurrency environments where collectors' dreams are realized. In this role, you'll sit at the intersection of high-scale transaction systems and cutting-edge AI. You'll build products that provide upfront liquidity to consignors, personalized discovery for buyers, and professional-grade tools for power sellers. If you're energized by the idea of shipping features that millions of hobbyists and power-users rely on, we want to talk. What You'll Do Here * Architect the Auction Engine: Build and scale the high-concurrency bidding and listing systems that power 9-figure annual GMV. * Ship AI-Powered Liquidity: Develop next-gen features that leverage AI to provide instant valuations and upfront liquidity to our consignors and sellers. * Personalize the Hobby: Use data and machine learning to build rich, personalized discovery experiences that match unique collectibles to the right buyers. * Empower Power Users: Design and launch sophisticated management tools for everyone from high-frequency "power sellers" to veteran hobbyists. * Own the Experience: Build end-to-end-from the low-latency backend logic required for live bidding to the sleek, responsive UI where the action happens. * Drive Technical Excellence: Mentor the team and set the standard for code quality, system reliability, and performance. This is a perfect fit if you… * Love High-Scale Challenges: You aren't intimidated by 9-figure transaction volumes or the "thundering herd" of bidders in the final seconds of an auction. * Are an AI Pragmatist: You know how to take LLMs or computer vision models and turn them into practical, user-facing features that solve real business problems. * Think in Systems & UX: You can visualize how a data schema change on the backend will ripple out into the user experience for a power seller. * Have High Agency: You thrive in an environment where you are expected to identify the highest-leverage work and execute on it without a hand-holding manual. ## Related Videos - [Optimizing Discovery: PostgreSQL's Role in Transforming GetYourGuide's Search](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1647-optimizing-discovery-postgresql-s-role-in-transforming-getyourguide-s-search) - [Developing the Backend with Stefan Lingler, CTO at Shpock](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100360-developing-the-backend-with-stefan-lingler-cto-at-shpock) - [Watch Tests Go Brrrr! : Getting Started with Cypress in ReactJS](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/282-watch-tests-go-brrrr-getting-started-with-cypress-in-reactjs) - [Inside Bitpanda's Tech Stack: Scaling a European Fintech Leader - Markus Dorner](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1979-inside-bitpanda-s-tech-stack-scaling-a-european-fintech-leader-markus-dorner) - [Meet Your New BFF: Backend to Frontend without the Duct Tape](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/682-meet-your-new-bff-backend-to-frontend-without-the-duct-tape) - [Discover the open source trio you didn’t expect: .NET and PostgreSQL on Linux](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2042-discover-the-open-source-trio-you-didn-t-expect-net-and-postgresql-on-linux) ## Related Articles - [How We Built a Worry-Free System That Runs for 10+ Years – And What We’d Do Again](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/751-how-we-built-a-worry-free-system-that-runs-for-10-years-and-what-we-d-do-again) - [Dev Digest 137 - AI'm not sure about this](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/485-dev-digest-137-ai-m-not-sure-about-this) - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline) - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [Dev Digest 132 - Binging WADFlix?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/473-dev-digest-132-binging-wadflix)
