You will collaborate closely with engineering leadership and senior builders to ship production work quickly, improve system clarity, and raise the bar on operations.
What youll work on
You will support work across the full surface area of the company, including:
- Core platform APIs (TypeScript / NestJS) and service-to-service integrations (auth, billing, events).
- Mission Inbox v4 app (React + TypeScript) to improve the customer experience for domains, mailboxes, health, and billing.
- OBM / sending infrastructure and operational tooling (debugging, incident response, performance, safety).
- Usage + billing foundations (volume-based logic, metering, and clean handoff to Stripe-style billing flows).
- Production operations: deployments, environment configuration, observability, and make it hard to break prod.
- Own projects end-to-end: design implementation rollout monitoring iteration.
- Build and maintain APIs and services (TypeScript/NestJS, plus Python/Django where needed).
- Contribute to the frontend when needed (React/TypeScript) to ship complete features.
- Debug production issues across code, databases, and infrastructure layers.
- Improve reliability and developer velocity through better tooling, automation, and documentation.
- Collaborate asynchronously as a remote-first teammate: clear written updates, tight handoffs, and predictable execution.
- 5+ years of professional software engineering experience (or equivalent).
- Strong backend fundamentals: API design, databases (Postgres), and reliability/performance work.
- Ability to ship pragmatic solutions quickly without sacrificing stability.
- Comfortable working across a multi-language environment (TypeScript primarily, plus some Python/Go).
- Strong debugging instincts and production ownership.
- Experience with email systems (SMTP concepts, deliverability, bounce/complaint patterns).
- Experience with event-driven systems and high-throughput workloads.
- Familiarity with Docker/Kubernetes and cloud infrastructure patterns (DigitalOcean is a plus).
- Experience with Stripe or usage-based billing systems.
- This is a fully remote role.
- You can work autonomously, communicate clearly in writing, and maintain momentum without constant meetings.
- Schedule is EST 9am to to 4pm monday to friday.
- $40k per year salary to start
