## Description

We help people remove their personal information from data broker websites and take back control of their online privacy. We're a fully remote company headquartered in the San Francisco Bay Area, and we're looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to work closely with the founders on both product development and technical direction. This role is open to candidates based in Latin America.
What you'd work on in your first quarter

You'd be writing code in our Django backend, which powers both the consumer dashboard and the B2B platform:

 * New features for the APIs that power our consumer dashboard and customer reporting
 * Performance and reliability work in our Celery and RabbitMQ pipelines
 * Integrations with third-party services like payment providers and identity providers (Stripe, WorkOS SSO)
 * Code review, both giving and receiving, on a small Back End team of other Senior Engineers

We don't have a rigid roadmap of "first 30 days, first 60 days" - you'd pick up real work in your first week.
