As a Senior Full-Stack Engineer, you will own backend systems and APIs that operate on large volumes of decision data and expose them through customer-facing product surfaces.
Your work directly influences outcomes such as reducing false positives, improving approval rates, and increasing confidence when shipping changes to production
Build and own backend components written in Python / FastAPI, running on an AWS serverless architecture, powering customer-facing capabilities for evaluating and improving decision flows
Design, extend, and maintain complex backend subsystems that operate on large volumes of historical decision data and expose them through well-structured APIs
Review pull requests with depth, contribute to architectural decisions, and help maintain a high bar for code quality, reliability, and delivery velocity, including CI/CD improvements where needed
Collaborate closely with Product, Solutions, and other engineering teams to translate business problems into scalable technical solutions
Actively participate in team rituals such as planning sessions, demos, and technical deep dives, shaping both execution and long-term direction
Grow as an engineer by working on a foundational part of the product, learning from experienced peers, and taking increasing ownership over systems and outcomes
At scale, the systems you build will;
Process millions of decisions per day
Persist and query terabytes of data per day
Execute large-scale experiments over billions of historical decisions
Serve low-latency APIs on top of append-heavy datasets
Benefit from an onboarding and training path supported by best-in-class coaches to become a true expert in your field
