Job description
As a Business Systems Engineer, you will help build and operate the systems that connect our e-commerce, inventory, sales, client care, production, and gemology workflows. Youâll work on supplier data pipelines, Shopify integrations, pricing logic, internal tools, event-driven automations, and AI-assisted workflows that support teams across the company.
Some of the systems youâll help build and maintain include:
- Production services that import, validate, and synchronize inventory from dozens of suppliers
- Shopify integrations and order orchestration services
- Internal tools used across Sales, Client Care, Production, and Gemology
- Pricing services and application-level business rules that drive our catalog
- Event-driven workflows running on AWS
- AI-assisted automation and internal tooling
- Monitoring and operational tooling that keeps the platform healthy
- API integrations connecting SaaS platforms, internal databases, and production workflows, * Youâre comfortable with ambiguity. Business problems rarely arrive as complete requirements, and youâre excited to untangle them.
- You enjoy making thoughtful judgment calls. There usually isnât one âcorrectâ solution-just tradeoffs.
- Youâre technology-agnostic. Whether the right answer is Python, SQL, an AWS Lambda, an automation, or changing the business process itself, your goal is solving the problem well.
- You believe documentation is part of engineering.
-
You get satisfaction from building systems that quietly do their jobs for years., You should already be using Claude Code, Codex, or similar coding agents as a core part of your development workflow-not simply as autocomplete. We expect engineers to delegate implementation, investigation, refactoring, testing, and documentation to AI agents, critically review their output, and know when to trust them and when not to. Nice to Have
- Docker
- AWS SQS, DynamoDB, RDS, S3, API Gateway, CloudFront, or IAM
- Shopify APIs
- High-volume API integrations, synchronization services, or import processes
- Monday.com, Make.com, Trello, Zapier, or similar workflow platforms
- Google Apps Script
- Google Sheets automation
- Monitoring, alerting, or operational tooling
- E-commerce, inventory, manufacturing, or retail operations systems
- Experience integrating LLMs into production workflows
Requirements
Weâre looking for an engineer who enjoys working at the intersection of software, operations, and business process. You should be comfortable with ambiguity, good at translating messy real-world workflows into maintainable systems, and confident making thoughtful judgment calls when there isnât a perfect answer. Youâll work closely with non-technical stakeholders, so strong communication and documentation matter as much as the code itself.
We value autonomy, practical engineering, clear ownership, and systems that keep working long after they ship., * 2+ years of professional software development experience using Python
- Working knowledge of JavaScript, SQL, Bash, and GraphQL
- Experience designing, consuming, or debugging REST APIs
- Familiarity with AWS Lambda and ECS
- Experience working with relational databases
- Comfortable debugging production systems
- Comfortable reading and improving an existing codebase
- Experience using Git in a collaborative development environment
- Strong written communication and documentation skills
- Comfortable proactively working with non-technical stakeholders to clarify needs, manage expectations, and make decisions
- Experience using Claude Code, Codex, or similar AI coding agents as a core part of your development workflow
About the company
Youâll work directly with the people running the business, ask questions, propose alternatives, and choose solutions that balance simplicity, reliability, and long-term maintainability. We value good judgment over rigid process, thoughtful tradeoffs over cleverness, and documentation over tribal knowledge.
Youâll have a great deal of autonomy, but you wonât be working in isolation. We believe the best engineering comes from understanding the business deeply, collaborating with the people closest to the problem, and building systems that make everyoneâs work easier.
What Success Looks LikeWithin your first 30 days
- Youâre shipping production code into existing systems.
- Youâre fielding requests from stakeholders and helping turn them into clear next steps.
- Youâre using documentation, code walkthroughs, and working sessions to build context quickly.
- Youâve diagnosed and fixed issues with support from the team.
- Youâre beginning to understand how inventory, pricing, orders, and internal workflows connect across the business.
Within 90 days
- Youâre independently owning small to medium projects from discovery through deployment.
- Business stakeholders are bringing you problems, not just implementation requests.
- Youâre making thoughtful technical decisions and explaining your reasoning clearly.
- Youâre comfortable debugging production issues across unfamiliar parts of the platform.
- Youâve improved the reliability, clarity, or maintainability of systems you inherited.
Within six months
- Youâre leading larger projects that affect multiple teams or systems.
- You understand the business well enough to identify better solutions than the original request.
- Youâre helping shape technical direction, not just executing known work.
- Youâve built or materially improved systems that people across the company rely on every day without thinking about them.
