What we're looking for
• 5+ years of backend software engineering experience.• Strong proficiency in Java or Go.• Hands-on experience with relational and/or NoSQL databases (Postgres, MongoDB, Redis).• Track record at high-growth tech startups, unicorns, or top public tech companies.• A degree in Computer Science or another STEM field.• Stable tenure (no more than two job changes in the past five years).• Willingness to work onsite 5 days/week in Seattle.
Bonus points
• Production experience with AWS, GCP, or Azure.• Background in containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and modern CI/CD.• Exposure to large-scale data processing or event-driven architectures.• Leadership experience on team projects or mentoring engineers.
Compensation and benefits
• Base salary: $190K to $210K.• Equity included.• Visa sponsorship: can sponsor H1B transfers and potentially Green Card transfers (I-140 after 6 months).• Relocation support provided for individuals and families.
