Job Overview

We're a fast-paced fintech start-up looking for an experienced Staff Back End/Platform Engineer to drive our cloud solutions forward. With a strong focus on Python, Django, and AWS expertise, this role will play a critical part in shaping our backend features, streamlining DevOps processes, and enhancing platform performance.


About the Role

This is not a DevOps-only position, as you'll have the flexibility to contribute across backend engineering and platform tasks. You'll be developing essential backend features and integrations using Python and Django (70-80% of your role), building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines for efficient deployment, managing and optimizing Kubernetes clusters and Docker containers, enhancing monitoring systems, and conducting performance testing.

  • Design, develop, and deploy scalable backend features using Python and Django.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define and implement CI/CD pipelines.
  • Oversee the management and optimization of Kubernetes clusters and Docker containers.
  • Develop and maintain monitoring systems to ensure optimal platform performance.
  • Participate in rotational on-call support for platform stability.

Requirements

To succeed in this role, you'll need:

  • 8+ years of experience in software engineering, specifically in Python and Django.
  • DevOps expertise in AWS, Docker, and Kubernetes.
  • Start-up experience (VC-backed, teams under 200).
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field.

What We Offer

You'll enjoy:

  • A competitive base salary up to $200k.
  • Attractive equity options.
  • A comprehensive benefits package, including 401k, PTO, and more.
  • The opportunity to make an impact in a rapidly growing fintech start-up.
  • 100% remote work within the U.S.

Hiring Process

Our hiring process is designed to be swift and streamlined, with four stages to find the right candidate for this role.
