What You’ll Be Doing Every Day
As a Remote Back-End Developer, you’ll build robust, scalable server-side systems that power seamless digital experiences. You’ll collaborate across teams, mentor others, and contribute to a diverse team passionate about creating technology that positively impacts lives.
Key Responsibilities
- Architect, develop, and maintain back-end services and APIs with a strong focus on performance and reliability.

- Enhance software performance and responsiveness to support scalability and ensure high availability and system security.
- Write clean, testable code and conduct thorough code reviews to uphold coding standards.
- Troubleshoot and debug production issues, using logging and monitoring tools to identify root causes quickly
- Participate in Agile ceremonies, including sprint planning, daily stand-ups, and retrospectives.
- Develop and regularly update comprehensive records outlining systems, workflows, and architectural decisions.
A Workplace Built on Trust, Belonging, and Collaboration
Here, we don’t just talk about diversity—we live it. You’ll be part of a global, remote-first environment where everyone’s story matters. We believe in equal opportunity for all, regardless of background, gender identity, race, age, or ability. We’ve built a place where your individuality strengthens the whole team.
One of our developers once shared how they joined us after feeling overlooked in previous roles due to being a self-taught coder. They flourished with mentorship and trust here, leading major backend projects. Their story isn’t an exception; it’s our standard.
Tools and Technologies You’ll Use
You’ll work with a modern stack designed to maximize productivity and creativity. While we value your adaptability, familiarity with the following tools will give you a head start:
- Languages: Node.js, Python, Java, or Go
- Frameworks: Express, Django, Spring Boot
- Databases: PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis
- DevOps: Docker, Kubernetes, GitHub Actions
- Cloud: AWS, GCP, or Azure for scalable hosting
- Testing: Jest, Mocha, JUnit, Postman
- Monitoring: Prometheus, Grafana, Sentry
We don't expect you to know every tool. We support learning and development through peer pairing, online courses, and internal tech talks.
Who Thrives Here
We seek team players with technical expertise and a genuine desire to build meaningful solutions. You'll feel right at home if you value constructive feedback, see challenges as opportunities, and seek a team where emotional intelligence is celebrated as much as problem-solving.
Desired Qualifications
- 4+ years of experience in back-end development in a professional setting
- Solid understanding of RESTful API design and asynchronous processing
- Experience with relational and NoSQL database systems
- Strong knowledge of security best practices and data protection
- Exposure to CI/CD practices and cloud infrastructure tools
- An openness to feedback and a passion for continuous personal and professional development
- Practical communication skills in a remote-first work environment
Your Day, Your Flow
In this entirely remote position, you have the freedom to contribute from wherever you feel most inspired. Whether it's a quiet morning at your kitchen table, an afternoon at a co-working space, or a late-night coding session that gets you in the flow, we honor the way you work best. We measure success by output and impact, not hours clocked.
