Job Description

Who: You! And the rest of the Engineering department, Backend team, along with cross-functional partners across the company.
What: A thrilling opportunity for a Backend Software Engineer—a true builder—who thrives on versatility and is driven by the pursuit of technical excellence to create and innovate.
When: ASAP! We are looking to hire and onboard a new hire as soon as we find the right person for the job. Exciting work awaits!
Where: Hybrid. Seattle-based candidates may start remotely, with an expectation to transition to a hybrid, in-office model if and when a local office is established.
Why: You’ll design, build, and maintain software components that are critical to Spotnana’s platform, collaborating with your team to deliver high-quality, scalable solutions. This role provides opportunities to develop strong engineering fundamentals, work with shared components and frameworks, and grow by tackling meaningful technical challenges.
How (to land the job!): The process begins with a take-home technical assessment designed to showcase your skills. Candidates who move forward will then have a conversation with a member of our Talent Acquisition team, followed by live collaboration with a panel of engineers and hiring managers. The process is subject to change.

The day-to-day:
  • Design and develop high-quality cloud-native services within the Spotnana platform.
  • Contribute to product reliability and customer satisfaction through testing, debugging, and code reviews.
  • Collaborate with technical leads, and teammates to drive craftsmanship and innovation.
  • Promote strong engineering practices and a supportive, healthy team culture.
  • Share knowledge and mentor others to help grow engineering talent across the team.

Skills & Qualities we value:
  • 4+ years of software development experience in products or SaaS, with strong skills in data structures and algorithms (Java preferred, but other languages welcome).
  • Background in backend distributed systems and cloud-native development, including building reusable components and designing scalable APIs.
  • Experience with software design, architecture, and working on cross-functional or multi-team projects.
  • A Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field—or equivalent practical experience.
  • Willing and able to work in an open office environment
  • Experience with using LLM services and building highly scalable web services, such as building an application using ChatGPT API and building a web service on AWS (or other cloud providers), will be a strong plus.
