Requirements
• 5+ years building and scaling backend systems (distributed systems experience expected at senior level) • Strong JVM fundamentals; ability to troubleshoot and performance-tune production services • Production experience with Kotlin (functional/reactive patterns a strong plus) • Strong SQL + data modeling skills (PostgreSQL; familiarity with jOOQ or similar) • Experience with event-driven architectures (Kafka) and cloud deployment on AWS; containers (Docker/Kubernetes) • Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate across functions • Comfort with AI-assisted engineering and the discipline to validate outcomes (tests, metrics, evaluation) rather than trusting outputs blindly • Search/retrieval systems (Elasticsearch/Lucene) • Workflow/orchestration (Argo/Airflow), Terraform/Ansible, Grafana dashboards • Working with external social APIs (TikTok/YouTube/Facebook) • Data-driven systems at scale • $120,000 - $150,000 a year • Traackr employs people across multiple U.S. states and other countries.

For details about the pay range for your location, please contact your Traackr recruiter. • We use GenAI to accelerate development while maintaining a high code quality standard. For any product behavior driven by data or AI—prompts, models, scoring/ranking, heuristics—we rely on disciplined evaluation (metrics, regression suites, and monitoring) to ensure changes are reliable and measurable.
Responsibilities
• Own backend features end-to-end: discovery, design, implementation, rollout, and long-term reliability/operations • Design and evolve distributed systems (services, pipelines, data stores) with strong performance, scalability, and resiliency • Build and maintain APIs (REST/GraphQL, where relevant) and data access patterns supporting analytics and search use cases • Establish strong engineering fundamentals: code reviews, testing strategies, incident readiness, and operational excellence • Bring evaluation discipline to AI-assisted work: treat prompts/configs like versioned artifacts, design regression tests, measure quality changes, and monitor for drift (the same way you would for performance or correctness) • Use GenAI productively and responsibly (for coding assistance, debugging, and design reviews), while maintaining high standards for correctness, security, and privacy. • Mentor teammates and raise the bar through documentation, pairing, and lightweight coaching on best practices
