at Webflow
Webflow is seeking a backend engineer to own critical infrastructure for a new Digital Asset Manager powering enterprise content workflows. This is a ground-floor opportunity to architect systems that solve real scaling challenges—helping teams organize, govern, and deploy visual content across web properties. You'll thrive here if you enjoy technical depth, move decisively without cutting corners, and see early-stage problems as chances to shape a product's foundation.
The Digital Asset Manager initiative represents a significant product expansion for Webflow's platform. Currently, organizations struggle with fragmented asset storage, making it difficult to maintain brand consistency, track performance, and enable content reuse at scale. This backend role focuses on designing and implementing the server-side systems that unify asset workflows within Webflow's broader experience platform.
You'll own architectural decisions around data modeling, API design, storage optimization, and integration with upstream/downstream systems. Your work will directly impact how millions of digital assets flow through customer organizations—from initial upload through governance, transformation, and deployment.
Key responsibilities include
You should have proven experience building backend systems at scale, comfort with modern cloud infrastructure, and a track record of shipping features that matter. An understanding of content management or asset handling workflows is valuable but not required. We value engineers who balance velocity with thoughtful design—those who ask hard questions before shipping and treat technical debt seriously.
