Scored from the posting itself — how clearly the role is described, how much it says about pay and benefits, and how recently it was listed. Not a judgement of Engine as an employer.

What you need

  • 5+ years of hands-on experience in designing, implementing, and maintaining highly available and high-performing distributed systems
  • Proven track record of building public-facing (consumer-grade) APIs
  • Experience managing complexities of versioning, deprecation, and consumption-based rate limiting
  • Experience with Node.js, TypeScript, Kotlin (or similar modern backend languages)
  • Experience with AWS
  • Strong grasp of software design principles, scalability, and system architecture

What you get

  • Competitive base pay tied to role and experience
  • Equity for all employees
  • Eligibility for bonuses or commissions depending on the role
  • Hybrid-hub model for work environments

Worth weighing

  • No specific mention of the tech stack beyond Node.js, TypeScript, Kotlin, and AWS
  • Base pay range provided but no details on total compensation structure beyond equity and potential bonuses
  • Vague description of benefits; full list not provided in the posting
