If you combine excellent communication and planning skills with hands-on execution and a bias toward action, this role is for you.

This is a remote position. Core work hours are in the Eastern Time Zone. US-only.

What You'll Do

  • Design, build, and maintain scalable AWS infrastructure using Terraform to support mobile backend services.

  • Collaborate closely with the mobile backend development team to understand needs, plan improvements, and deliver performant infrastructure.
  • Modernize and revamp legacy systems, introducing best practices across CI/CD, deployment, and security.
  • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions) and deployment automation across multiple environments (dev, qa, production).
  • Implement and manage serverless solutions using AWS Lambda and other services to support backend development.
  • Set up and optimize infrastructure for mobile-specific services including push notifications, feature flags, and API endpoints.
  • Build observability tooling—logging, monitoring, alerting—using CloudWatch, Sentry, and custom tools to ensure performance and reliability.
  • Optimize API performance, database interactions, and infrastructure bottlenecks impacting mobile experiences.
  • Build tools and scripts to streamline operational workflows and development efficiency.
  • Ensure security best practices across backend infrastructure, APIs, and mobile-supporting services.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve infrastructure issues rapidly, taking initiative to prevent future occurrences.
  • Write and maintain clear documentation for infrastructure, deployment, and operations.

  • Excellent communicator with a proactive, execution-focused mindset.
  • Experienced in serverless architecture (e.g., Lambda) and supporting backend development teams.
  • Ability to troubleshoot and support backend services built with TypeScript, Node.js, or Python, with a solid understanding of runtime behavior
  • Independent problem-solver with a collaborative spirit and strong sense of ownership.
  • Familiar with GraphQL, REST APIs, and mobile-focused backend systems.

Nice to Have

  • Understanding of mobile deployment processes, app versioning, and supporting multiple app variants.
  • Experience with backend monitoring and analytics for mobile apps.
  • Familiarity with app store deployment tooling (App Store Connect, Google Play Console).
  • Knowledge of container orchestration (ECS, Kubernetes) and microservices.
  • Understanding of mobile security best practices and API protection.
  • Skilled in MySQL and NoSQL database administration and optimization.
  • Familiarity with feature flag systems and A/B testing.

What We Value

We value engineers who are scrappy, resourceful, and action-oriented. You thrive in fast-paced environments, solve problems independently, and work collaboratively to ship resilient systems. You take ownership without waiting to be asked, communicate clearly, and always look for ways to improve performance, reliability, and team productivity.

We're building a mobile-first platform from the ground up — if you're excited by that kind of challenge and love wearing multiple hats, you’ll thrive here. You’ll also be joining a passionate, talented, and fun-loving team that knows how to work hard, laugh often, and support one another every step of the way.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
