Job description

AI agents are part of our engineering workflow, not an experiment. They handle meaningful implementation work; engineers set direction, review the output, and own what ships. You will use our agents, improve them, and help build what comes next.

What you’ll do

  • Own data-heavy features from design through production, planning pragmatic solutions for rising traffic and data volume.
  • Improve data models, pipelines, migrations, and multi-tenant systems.
  • Work in our TypeScript monorepo with Hono, Drizzle/Postgres, and AWS infrastructure managed with SST/Pulumi across Lambda, SQS, EventBridge, and S3. Experience with Terraform, AWS CDK, or similar tools transfers well. You may also touch React 19 and React Router 7 when work crosses into the product.
  • Monitor production, investigate issues, and fix root causes.
  • Help the team make clear, practical technical decisions.

Requirements

  • 5+ years building, scaling, and running production software.
  • Strong backend engineering skills in a typed language, including experience integrating third-party and public APIs such as OpenAI or Anthropic Claude.
  • Experience with relational data modeling, migrations, and production data systems.
  • Sound judgment when working with sensitive data and high-impact changes.
  • Current, hands-on experience using AI coding tools and reviewing their output.
  • Clear written communication, product sense, and comfort owning work end to end.

Experience with TypeScript, Postgres, serverless AWS, or event-driven systems is useful; exact framework overlap is not required.

If you enjoy turning complex data problems into simple, dependable systems - and want to help define AI-native engineering - we’d love to hear from you.
