$120,000.00/yr - $200,000.00/yr What you’ll do

Build polished, fast product experiences in Next.js + TypeScript (design-quality UI, accessible components, responsive layouts). Design clean backend contracts and APIs (FastAPI/Python) for workflows, jobs, billing, and auth. Evolve our workflow engine (DAG/state machine): scheduling, retries/idempotency, rate limits, progress tracking, logs, and user-visible run history. Ship data pipelines and background workers (Celery/queues), with strong observability and alerting. Scale and harden the stack on AWS + Docker (ECS/EKS or similar), with caching (Redis), pagination, backpressure, and cost controls. Implement product features end-to-end: DB schema → API → UI, including tests and telemetry. Contribute to billing (Stripe), permissions/RBAC, and realtime UX (SSE/WebSockets) for run status. Maintain a high bar for reliability, performance, and UX; instrument everything. Minimum requirements

Strong backend skills in Python (FastAPI preferred): API design, testing, error handling, schema/versioning. Experience deploying/operating with Docker and a major cloud (AWS preferred: ECS/EKS/Lambda, SQS, CloudWatch). Proven work on workflow/job systems: queues, retries, idempotency keys, scheduling, and run histories. Comfortable with Postgres (or MySQL) schema design and Redis (caching, rate limiting, locks). Performance mindset: RSC/Server Actions, data-fetching patterns, bundle/TTFB tuning, DB query perf. Production observability: logs, traces, metrics (e.g., Langfuse, OpenTelemetry, Sentry), and on-call pragmatism. Solid security hygiene (PII handling, secrets, JWT/session auth, CSRF/CORS, least-privilege access). Nice to have

Next.js App Router, RSC, Server Actions, edge/runtime primitives (Vercel/AWS CloudFront). Prisma/Drizzle; tRPC or GraphQL; Zod/JSON schema; feature flags/experimentation. Realtime UX (WebSockets/SSE), optimistic updates, background revalidation. Celery/RQ, event sourcing, or state-machine libs (e.g., Temporal, Dagster, Prefect, XState). Stripe (subscriptions, metered usage, webhooks) and customer-visible billing pages. CI/CD (GitHub Actions), IaC (Terraform), and basic cost/perf dashboards. Search/retrieval familiarity (OpenSearch/Elasticsearch) and simple relevance tuning. Testing: Playwright (e2e), Vitest/Jest, pytest; accessibility checks. Seniority level
