An overview of this role
As a Senior Fullstack Engineer on GTM Engineering, you will design and build the backend systems and services that power our go-to-market and growth platforms, while also contributing across the stack where needed. This is a strong fit if you want to work in a 0 to 1 space where you can shape what gets built, guide architectural choices, and guide work from specification through production health.
What you'll do
• Design, build, and maintain backend services and APIs that support GTM and growth platforms
• Contribute across the stack, including frontend work, when a feature or project calls for it
• Contribute to technical direction for the systems you own, including making build-versus-buy suggestions and evaluating trade-offs between speed and long-term maintainability
• Identify and resolve performance, scalability, or reliability issues in backend systems before they become user-facing problems
• Review code and designs from other engineers, and provide feedback for peers
• Mentor junior engineers on the team
• Document system design decisions and backend architecture so other engineers can build on your work without you in the room
What you'll bring
• A strong track record of owning backend systems in production
• Strong fullstack technical skills with proficiency in Vue, Node, Go, and Ruby
• Deep experience with backend service design, including API design, data modeling, and database performance
• A track record of making sound technical trade-offs independently
• Comfort working in a fast-moving environment where priorities can shift with campaign or launch t
