  • Build rapid prototypes and ship critical systems quickly from concept to production.
  • Solve high-risk, high-impact problems such as live video reliability, real-time engagement, commerce integrations, and AI-powered experiences.
  • Architect the platform for global 24/7 operation, including uptime, latency, cost, and graceful degradation during peak events.

  • Work closely with Product and Design from concept through launch and take full ownership of features.
  • Represent engineering with strategic customers and partners, translating customer needs into architectural decisions.

  • Strong frontend experience with React and/or Angular; experience with both is a significant plus.
  • Deep experience designing and operating distributed, real-time systems in production under 24/7 load.
  • Strong data engineering experience with SQL/NoSQL, event-driven architectures, and analytical stores such as BigQuery or equivalent.
  • Hands-on experience building or shipping AI/ML-powered features in production, such as personalization, recommendations, search, or generative AI.
  • Experience with GCP services such as Firebase, Cloud Functions, Firestore, Realtime Database, and Pub/Sub is a strong advantage.
  • Experience with commerce platforms such as Shopify or WooCommerce, and/or live video or streaming infrastructure, is a plus.
  • Excellent judgment on trade-offs between scope, speed, performance, and UX.
  • Clear, calm communication skills and the ability to write well and collaborate effectively.

Benefits

  • Contract, remote work opportunity for LATAM candidates.
  • Opportunity for principal-level ownership of a platform with meaningful business impact.
  • Work on a modern stack including Node.js, TypeScript, React, Angular, GCP, Firebase, BigQuery, and Pub/Sub.

  • A senior, collaborative team where product, design, data, and engineering ship together.
  • Autonomy to evolve the technology stack and shape engineering practices.
