About the Role

This is a core backend engineering role at a small, high-caliber founding team building AI-native operations infrastructure for private markets.

• Partner closely with product teams to ship features while maintaining high quality standards.

• Drive AI-native development practices that enable rapid, high-quality releases.

What We're Looking For

• 1–6 years of backend development experience.

• Proficiency in TypeScript and NestJS for building production-grade backend services.

• Hands-on experience with PostgreSQL and Prisma in production environments.

• Experience with infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform or Pulumi to manage deployments.

• Comfort working in a fast-moving, early-stage environment with a high degree of ownership.
