Job description

Ontario, California is a growing hub for modern technology and innovation, and at LevoNotion Solutions we bring that same mindset into building scalable backend systems that power real-world digital products. We design and engineer high-performance, cloud-native platforms that support thousands of users while maintaining reliability, speed, and security. We believe backend engineering is not just about writing code-it’s about building the foundation that everything else depends on.

We are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer who will take ownership of core services, system architecture, and API development. You won’t just be writing endpoints-you will be shaping the backend structure that supports product growth, scalability, and long-term technical direction. You will work closely with product, frontend, and DevOps teams to translate business needs into robust technical solutions and ensure our systems remain fast, stable, and future-proof.

Why Work With Us?

Engineering Ownership:

You will have real ownership over backend services and architecture decisions. We trust engineers to design, build, and improve systems without unnecessary bureaucracy.

Modern Cloud Infrastructure:

We work with scalable cloud platforms and modern backend technologies, focusing on performance, automation, and reliability.

Impact-Driven Work:

Your work directly affects product performance, user experience, and system scalability. What you build matters from day one.

Growth & Learning:

We support continuous improvement through exposure to complex system design challenges, modern backend architectures, and production-scale environments.

Key Responsibilities:

Backend System Development:

Design, build, and maintain scalable backend services, APIs, and microservices that power core product functionality.

System Architecture:

Contribute to architecture decisions involving distributed systems, performance optimization, and scalability planning.

Database & Data Design:

Develop and optimize relational and/or NoSQL database structures for efficiency, reliability, and scalability.

Cloud & Infrastructure Collaboration:

Work with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and collaborate with DevOps teams to deploy and maintain production systems.

Performance & Reliability:

Monitor, troubleshoot, and improve system performance, ensuring high availability and low latency.

Code Quality & Collaboration:

Participate in code reviews, enforce best practices, and collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality software.

Requirements

Do you have experience in Implementing APIs?, 5+ years of backend engineering experience building scalable systems and production-grade APIs.

Technical Skills:

Strong experience with Node.js, Java, Python, or similar backend technologies.

System Design:

Solid understanding of distributed systems, microservices architecture, and scalable backend design principles.

Databases:

Experience working with SQL and/or NoSQL databases, including performance tuning and schema design.

Cloud Experience:

Familiarity with AWS, Azure, or GCP and deploying backend services in cloud environments.

Engineering Mindset:

You think in terms of scalability, reliability, and maintainability. You know when to optimize and when to ship.
