Model domain data and implement performant data access patterns on MongoDB
Develop internal and public APIs that power our product and partner integrations
Implement observability across services: structured logging, tracing, metrics
Ensure security, reliability, and cost efficiency across deployments (AWS/GCP)
Collaborate with product and frontend to deliver features end-to-end
Partner with AI engineers to integrate LLM-based capabilities and analytics pipelines into backend services
Contribute to CI/CD, testing strategy, and deployment automation
4+ years backend or server-side engineering experience
Proficiency in Go and/or Python building production services

Robust testing practices and CI/CD experience
Observability fundamentals: logs, metrics, tracing, dashboards, and alerting
Product mindset with a focus on user impact and pragmatic tradeoffs
Development with security in mind (secure coding practices, least privilege, secrets management, and common API threat mitigations).
Excellent remote communication skills
Experience pairing MongoDB with complementary stores and caches (PostgreSQL, Redis, vector DBs)
Hands-on work with analytics pipelines and data warehouses (e.g., BigQuery, Snowflake) and exposing analytics to product features
Practical experience integrating AI/LLM services or building retrieval/augmentation services around them
Domain knowledge in construction tech or project management
Go, Python, MongoDB, Redis, REST/websockets, Kafka/SQS/PubSub, Docker, AWS/GCP, Terraform, Prometheus/Grafana, Datadog
