Responsibilities

Solve Customer Issues: You are the first line of defense for complex technical escalations. You will triage reported issues, reproduce them in safe environments, and often fix them yourself. Where the fixes require more work, you will translate production data into reproducible test cases, unblocking the offshore team and keeping our velocity high. You aren't just closing tickets; you are solving the root cause of customer pain
Ship Core Product Code: You are a builder. You will contribute to our TypeScript/Node.js backend, writing features and refactoring legacy code. You will ensure that "support" issues translate into permanent engineering fixes
Scale & Optimize: You own the health of the US production environment. You will optimize slow Postgres queries, manage database locking strategies, and build internal tools (like data de-identification pipelines) that allow our global team to ship faster and safer
Be Flexible: You will alternate between solving for high-impact customer needs, core development, and ensuring production health and quality

Qualification

Required

5+ Years of Engineering Experience: You are a strong backend engineer (TypeScript/Node.js) who prefers 'getting your hands dirty' with real-world problems over pure theory
The 'Forward Deployed' Mindset: You enjoy the dopamine hit of solving a burning customer issue. You are comfortable navigating uncertainty, reading logs, and tracing a bug from a customer report down to a specific line of code. You own these issues, taking responsibility for their delivery and customer communication
Operational Fluency: You are at home in a production environment. You understand Postgres internals, inside and out. You can analyze query plans, debug concurrency issues (locking, contention), and optimize data access patterns for scale. You build new metrics and optimize existing ones, you dig into the logs, you optimize for efficiency and reliability

Benefits

Generous Paid Time Off: Recharge and relax with 22 days of fixed time off per year, in addition to company holidays—because we believe work-life balance fuels performance.
Best-in-Class Parental Leave: Spend quality time with your growing family. We offer one of the industry’s most generous parental leave policies to support you during life’s most important moments.
Recognition & Rewards: We celebrate wins—big and small. Get rewarded with monetary incentives and company-wide recognition for your impact and dedication. Your hard work won’t go unnoticed.
Comprehensive Insurance Coverage: Stay covered with medical, dental, and vision insurance, plus 100% company-paid short- and long-term disability and basic life insurance. Optional perks include discounted legal aid and pet insurance.
