Job description
We’re hiring full-stack/backend engineers who love simplifying complex systems, unifying fragmented data, and building large-scale infrastructure. You’ll be hands-on with core backend systems syncing financial data across fragmented legacy software in real time (work is roughly 80-90% backend). You’ll own features end-to-end as an IC on a flat engineering team, talk directly to customers, and ship daily based on real feedback., * Build and maintain the unified API layer connecting construction ERPs to modern software (legacy SQL, DLL, and API-based systems from 20-40 years ago)
- Ship core backend systems for ERP sync, AP automation, expense management, and vendor management, with frontend work on apps that dog-food the API
- Solve real-time data sync challenges, including web-socket implementations for systems lacking native webhooks
- Build scalable testing frameworks to catch edge cases across 1,000+ endpoints
- Engage directly with customers and ship features daily based on real feedback
Tech stack: Not explicitly specified. Referenced technologies: AWS (cloud, preferred), SQL/DLL/API-based legacy systems, web-sockets, high-volume API infrastructure., * Construction tech background on the SWE side. The hiring manager, direct: “We want to avoid software engineers with construction backgrounds because we’re looking for the best software engineers and they’re probably not with a construction background.” Hard exclude for SWE specifically.
- Big tech only (FAANG without startup tenure). Acceptable only if junior with 2 years or less of big-tech time.
- Laid off from last role for performance reasons. Hard exclude.
- Currently in-between roles. Hard exclude.
- Preference for work-life balance, work on trendy tech (LLMs, crypto), mobile, embedded, or front-end. Hard mismatch with the company’s culture and core backend focus.
- Not looking for new grads
Why Join
- Profitable and cash-flow positive - a durable business, not a pre-revenue bet
- End-to-end ownership on a flat team with no traditional manager layer; direct customer contact
- Genuinely hard backend problems: unifying hundreds of fragmented legacy systems under one API, real-time sync, millions of API requests/day, testing across 1,000+ endpoints
Requirements
Do you have experience in Startup experience?, * 1-5 years backend or full-stack engineering
- CS degree from top 20-30 school
- Cloud infrastructure: AWS preferred
- Startup or founding engineering experience
- High-ownership, low-ego operator
Green Flags
- Startup or founding engineering experience at pre-Seed through Series C. Demonstrates ability to ship in ambiguity and learn the chaotic pace the company operates at.
- Top 20-30 school CS background, especially UWaterloo
- Serious athlete background (college or high school competitive sport). Strong correlation with discipline, time management, and high output.
- Multi-year tenure at a previous role. Signals follow-through and depth, not job-hopping.
- High GPA, meaningful academic awards, competitive extracurriculars (debate, etc.). Reliable signal for engineering rigor.
