## About the role

We’re looking for a senior engineer to support our scale. You’ll strengthen the infrastructure behind a live, revenue-generating product as we support larger customers, higher usage, and more demanding enterprise requirements: AWS, ECS/Fargate, CloudFormation, CI/CD, release management, observability, and reliability.

## What they're looking for

- Professional software engineering experience building, shipping, and maintaining production systems. We care more about demonstrated ownership and judgment than years of experience, but this is not an entry-level role
- Ideally, experience at a fast-growing startup or small engineering team where you had to ship quickly, operate with ambiguity, and own work beyond a narrow job description
- Strong in Python, Django, and PostgreSQL
- Comfortable owning production AWS infrastructure end-to-end, from deployment configuration and permissions to reliability, scaling, observability, and cost management
- Comfortable with React: you don't need to be a frontend specialist, but you can build and modify UI when needed
- Proficient with AI-assisted development tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, or similar tools. You use them regularly and they make you measurably faster
