Software Engineer (Infra)

What you’ll do

• Design and build highly scalable, secure, and reliable infrastructure to support critical APIs, services, and data pipelines.
• Lead infrastructure architecture decisions for performance, observability, and fault tolerance.
• Drive improvements in system reliability, monitoring, and incident response.
• Collaborate closely with product, platform, and data engineering teams to enable rapid feature development without compromising stability.
• Automate infrastructure management through infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD pipelines, and container orchestration.
• Champion best practices in operational excellence, disaster recovery, and distributed systems design.

What you’ll bring

• 7+ years of experience building and scaling backend or infrastructure systems in high-growth environments.
• Proficiency in Node.js, PostgreSQL, Redis, and AWS (or equivalent cloud platforms).
• Experience managing containerized workloads using tools like Kubernetes, ECS, or similar.
• Expertise in observability tooling (e.g., Datadog, Prometheus, OpenTelemetry) and monitoring pipelines.
• Proven ability to design fault-tolerant, distributed systems at scale.
• Strong debugging and performance optimization skills across the stack.
• Exceptional collaboration and communication skills, with experience partnering cross-functionally.
• Startup mindset: Not scared of ambiguity and hungry for rapid growth
• Intensity & Ownership: This is not a 9-5 — we’re scaling rapidly and have a massive opportunity ahead of us.
• Customer Obsession: You deeply care about the user experience and solving their problems

Even better

• Experience in payments, tax, accounting, or regulatory tech.
• Infrastructure or platform engineering background (e.g., CI/CD, observability).
• Experience scaling monolith-to-service architectures or event-driven systems.
• Familiarity with GraphQL, Kafka, Terraform, or container orchestration tools.
