Who we're looking for 🌟
Some engineers own a feature. On Backend Platform, you'll own how the backend works for everyone.
We're looking for a Senior Backend Engineer who works across PHP and Python and wants a say in the bigger picture. You'll lead company-level projects, like our Auth Service: one authorization layer for PHP and Python that lets Python products handle their traffic directly, without going through PHP. You'll research first when things are unclear, weigh the trade-offs, write them down, then ship in small, safe steps. And you'll decide where code should live by what makes sense for the system, not by which language you know best.
