The role
Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Build and own backend features for a software product used by a company's customers, working end-to-end in a high-autonomy environment. Apply strong algorithm and architecture skills, and work daily with code-generation assistants.

- Design robust infrastructure for complex, rule-heavy business logic.
- Build backend features for customers as part of a product engineering team.
Requirements

- Background at product-focused software companies.
- Strong data structures and algorithms fundamentals, with the ability to write solutions by hand without AI assistance.
- Experience at high-growth, well-regarded technology companies.
- Ability to architect software that runs reliably across many servers under heavy load.
- Comfort working every day with assistant-based code generation tools.
- Hands-on experience building customer-facing product features rather than internal platform or infrastructure work.
