Job Description

We’re looking for a backend engineer who gets excited about building things that don’t exist yet.
This is not a role for someone who only maintains or “tunes” existing systems — we need someone who can take a blank slate and turn it into a production‑ready service.

You’ll be working on greenfield projects with a team that values speed, technical excellence, and ownership. This is a 6‑month contract role with potential for extension and/or conversion, but in those six months, you’ll make a tangible impact.

Important:

• You must be based in the United States.

• We can’t provide visa sponsorship for this role.

• This is a contract position , fully remote within the US.

• This contract would be a W-2 position, we cannot do a 1099 or C2C at this time

Qualifications

What you’ll do

• Build backend services from scratch — from architecture to deployment.

• Design RESTful APIs and highly concurrent systems that handle real‑world scale.

• Solve complex engineering problems and make sound decisions about priorities.

• Collaborate closely with other engineers to deliver fast, maintainable code.

• Contribute to a culture of ownership: review code, share knowledge, and mentor where you can.

What makes someone a great fit

• 3+ years of experience in backend development.

• Proven track record of building greenfield systems (not just maintaining legacy code).

• Proficiency in Golang or Python (both are great).

• Experience with cloud‑native architectures (AWS, Kubernetes, Docker).

• Strong grasp of REST API design , distributed systems, and concurrency.
