**Why is this role important? “A shiny car is nothing without a good engine,” said Francois, one of the stellar engineers on our Development team, when asked this question.

We are a mission-oriented company with anambitious vision to enter new markets and dramatically expand our product offering. This growth requires support across the organization, and the Backend Engineering team is responsible for building a robust engine that will power all these new services and products. The Backend Engineer will work with Product and Engineering leaders to create the systems needed for staying a step or two ahead of the Frontend Engineering team. The person in this role will work on an interesting mixture of Product-led and Engineering-led projects, and has the opportunity to wear as many hats as he or she would like.
