- End-to-End Ownership : Architect, build, and maintain robust, scalable backend systems while ensuring seamless integration across the entire product stack.

- Product Translation : Act as your own Product Manager. Turn loose, ambiguous user feedback and high-level business goals into concrete, high-impact technical specs and feature rollouts.

- Hyper-Efficient Execution : Leverage cutting-edge AI engineering tools (agents, code generation, automated testing tools) to 5x your daily output, allowing our lean team to compete with organizations ten times our size.

- Rapid Iteration : Ship code daily. Balance perfect architecture with the realities of a fast-moving market, utilizing rapid prototyping to test hypotheses and validate features with real users.

- Technical Leadership : Maintain a high bar for code quality, system reliability, and security, while mentoring other team members on hyper-productive development workflows.

What We're Looking For :

Technical Depth & Experience :

- 7-12 years of experience building, shipping, and maintaining production-grade software in fast-paced environments.

- Deep backend expertise with a proven track record of designing resilient distributed systems, data models, and APIs that scale.

- AI-Native Workflow : You are already using AI tooling to dramatically accelerate your development lifecycle. You stay ahead of the curve on emerging dev-tools and know how to use them to skip the

busywork and focus on deep problem-solving.

Mindset & Capabilities :

- Strong Product Intuition : You possess a deeply user-centric mindset. You care about why something is being built and how it impacts the end-user, not just how the code compiles.

- Startup-Ready DNA : You thrive in environments with low oversight and high accountability. "Not my job" is not in your vocabulary; you default to extreme ownership.

- Comfort with Ambiguity : You don't get paralyzed when requirements change or are non-existent. You build, learn, pivot, and keep moving forward.
