You write clean, production-quality code and you're fast. You've built integrations with external APIs and you understand what makes them brittle. Experienced with payments and cloud platforms. You've worked with Stripe or similar billing systems. You've integrated with GCP, Vercel, or comparable cloud providers. You don't need to Google the basics. Solid on backend and data fundamentals. You can design a system, model a schema, and reason about data at scale. You know when to reach for a relational database and when not to. Security-aware. You understand the common auth patterns - OAuth, API keys, JWTs - and you know where the traps are when integrating third-party systems. High ownership with customers. You're comfortable in ambiguous, high-stakes situations with real customers. You communicate clearly, set expectations honestly, and follow through. Backgrounds that often do well: integration or platform engineers, solutions engineers who write real code, early engineers at API-first startups who owned customer-facing technical work., Intro Chat (~20 min) - Quick alignment call. We'll talk about what you've built, how you work with customers under pressure, and what you'd want to tackle first. Deep Dive Chat (~60 min) - A hands-on integration problem. We're evaluating how you debug, how you communicate your reasoning, and how you make decisions when the requirements are incomplete. Founder Chat (~30 min) - Culture, pace, ownership, and how you like to work. Time for your questions too. Paid Work Trial (1-2 weeks) - Work on a real integration challenge with an actual customer use case. We evaluate on code quality, problem-solving, and how you handle ambiguity. ## Description * Own technical integration delivery for priority customers - from first API call through production scale * Write TypeScript/Node.js code to build, customize, and debug integrations with payments systems, cloud platforms, and third-party APIs * Debug complex real-world issues live with customers - crawling edge cases, data pipeline failures, infra constraints * Build reusable solutions and playbooks that turn one-off customer problems into repeatable wins for the team * Translate customer friction into clear product and engineering insights and route them to the right people * Work closely with core engineering on reliability, performance, and DX improvements driven by what you're seeing in the field ## Related Videos - [Throwing off the burdens of scale in engineering](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/608-throwing-off-the-burdens-of-scale-in-engineering) - [Navigating Growth, Scaling Challenges, and Office Expansions with David Singleton, CTO at Stripe](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100362-navigating-growth-scaling-challenges-and-office-expansions-with-david-singleton-cto-at-stripe) - [Stop using Node.js like in 2020!
