Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) Software Quality Code Review Backend

Job description

We’re looking for Senior Backend Engineers who care about building scalable, reliable systems - and who thrive in a collaborative environment. You’ll join one of several product or infrastructure teams, each tackling challenges from decisioning to payments to APIs. Wherever you land, you’ll work on projects that are high-impact, technically challenging, and deeply rewarding.

Requirements

  • 3+ years of backend engineering experience (we know careers don’t all look the same - if you’re close, let’s talk).
  • Experience with .NET (C#), or similar frameworks
  • Experience scaling consumer-facing products with significant transaction volumes
  • A collaborative problem-solver who values inclusion, feedback, and continuous learning.
  • Able to effectively leverage AI-powered development tools (e.g., Cursor, Augment, Factory) to enhance productivity, code quality, and collaboration.

Don’t meet every qualification? We care about potential over your past. If you’re bringing ambition and drive to what we’re building, we want to hear from you.

Benefits & conditions

Tilt is a remote-first company. We drive connectivity through regular company offsites. Travel for company offsites is expected at a minimum 2 times a year.

How You’ll Make an Impact

  • Design and scale backend systems that power our consumer facing products
  • Build and refine APIs that deliver instant, seamless experiences.
  • Collaborate with product, credit/finance, compliance, support, and analytics teams.
  • Contribute to technical discussions, code reviews, and roadmap planning.
  • Drive continuous improvement in code quality, security, and operational excellence.
  • Share knowledge, mentor peers, and contribute to engineering best practices., * Virtual-first teamwork: The Tilt team is collaborating across 14 countries, 12 time zones, and counting. You’ll get started with a WFH office reimbursement.
  • Competitive pay: We’re big on potential, and it’s reflected in our competitive compensation packages and generous equity.
  • Complete support: Find flexible health plans at every premium level, and substantial subsidies that stand up to global standards.
  • Visibility is yours: You can count on direct exposure to our leadership team - we’re a team where good ideas travel quickly.
  • Paid global onsites: Magic happens IRL: we gather twice yearly to reconnect over shared meals or kayaking adventures. (We’ve visited Vail, San Diego, and Mexico City, to name a few.)
  • Impact is recognized: Growth opportunities follow your contributions, not rigid promotion timelines.
