Job Description
We’re seeking a Full Stack Engineer to help build scalable, intelligent infrastructure from the ground up. This is a 0-to-1 opportunity to shape how our platform operates, integrates, and scales—combining backend services, enterprise integrations, and AI-powered capabilities.
You’ll work directly with the Principal Architect & Engineer, Data Engineer, Frontend Engineer, and Product/Design team as a foundational technical leader. This is a generalist role where you’ll flex across domains based on company priorities—not operate in a silo.
Responsibilities
Core Services & Backend
- Design and build secure, scalable backend services powering user-facing features.
- Develop APIs, authentication systems (OAuth, JWT), and distributed processing workflows.
- Implement storage, processing, and versioning systems for core product functionality.
Integrations & Data Pipelines
- Build connectors to enterprise systems and third-party software.
- Design and implement data ingestion, migration, and synchronization pipelines.
- Optimize relational and NoSQL database performance and query efficiency.
Platform & Infrastructure
- Architect secure, multi-tenant systems aligned with SOC 2 and compliance standards.
- Manage AWS infrastructure (ECS, Lambda, Aurora/RDS, S3, CloudWatch).
- Improve CI/CD pipelines, monitoring, observability, and production reliability.
- Ensure performance, scalability, and operational excellence at scale.
Frontend & Product Collaboration
- Develop frontend workflows using React and TypeScript.
- Integrate AI-powered features into user-facing workflows.
- Collaborate closely with product and design to influence roadmap decisions.
Must Have
- 5+ years of backend engineering experience.
- 2+ years at an early-stage startup (0-to-1 build experience).
- Proven experience building production-ready systems at scale.
- Strong ownership mindset with end-to-end initiative leadership.
- Strong fundamentals in APIs, distributed systems, databases, security, and cloud architecture.
- Product mindset—ability to influence what gets built, not just how it’s built.
- Must be located in Latam.

- React, HTML, CSS
- TypeScript/Node.js and/or Python
- PostgreSQL and NoSQL databases
- AWS (ECS, Lambda, RDS/Aurora, S3, CloudWatch)
