Senior Software Engineer (backend)

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Senior Software Engineer (backend) based in the United States.

This role offers the opportunity to work on highly critical backend systems that power intelligent, automated workflows at significant scale.
You’ll focus primarily on improving the throughput, reliability, and performance of job processing and code execution systems.
The position combines hands-on engineering with meaningful influence over technical direction, product evolution, and engineering practices.
You’ll work in a collaborative, supportive environment where engineers are encouraged to take ownership from initial design through production and beyond.
Although backend systems are the primary focus, the role offers broad exposure across infrastructure, developer experience, and other parts of the technology stack.
You’ll tackle complex technical challenges involving distributed systems, containers, storage, execution environments, and high-volume workloads.
This is an opportunity to make highly visible contributions while working sustainably with a team that values simplicity, speed, sound engineering, and continuous learning.
