Join a high-scale consumer platform team as a Senior Backend Engineer, building the services behind digital experiences used by millions of people every day.

We're partnering with a large enterprise technology organization to place a Senior Software Engineer on a platform team that powers its core customer-facing experiences across web and mobile. The team works across Engineering, UX, Product, Business, and Analytics to ship fast, iterate through continuous experimentation and customer feedback, and integrate advanced capabilities such as Generative AI into production services.

Build and optimize server-to-server integrations and API layers (REST and GraphQL) that serve high-traffic, customer-facing applications.

Integrate AI/ML capabilities into product services and use generative AI tools to improve engineering productivity.

Contribute to solution design, conduct code reviews, and apply best practices for scalable, secure, and maintainable systems.

Monitor application performance, support defect resolution, and drive continuous improvement.

Mentor peers and contribute to knowledge sharing and engineering excellence across the team.
