Requirements
• Proven experience as a Senior Backend Engineer building production backend systems. • Strong experience with Python for building services, APIs, and backend infrastructure. • Experience designing system architecture with attention to reliability, scalability, and maintainability. • Strong understanding of how backend systems work under the hood, including performance, concurrency, and system behaviour. • Experience designing and working with PostgreSQL databases in production environments. • Experience deploying and operating systems in AWS or similar cloud environments. • Ability to plan complex engineering work and break projects into structured technical plans and deliverables. • Strong sense of ownership, taking responsibility for backend systems from design to production. • Experience writing clear technical documentation that supports long-term system maintainability. • Ability to troubleshoot complex issues across backend systems, infrastructure, and integrations. • Experience using AI tools as part of a modern engineering workflow. • What Makes You Stand Out: • Experience working with ROS or robotics-related software systems. • Experience implementing logging, monitoring, and observability systems, including tools like Grafana. • Experience designing systems that support offline operation and opportunistic synchronisation. • Experience building backend systems that support real-time data flows or hardware-connected environments. • Experience building or collaborating on frontend interfaces using React or other modern web frameworks to support internal tools and operational dashboards.
Responsibilities
• Design and build backend services using Python that power robotics operations, data flows, and internal tools. • Architect and implement scalable, reliable APIs and backend systems used by web applications and robotics infrastructure. • Design database models and data pipelines using PostgreSQL to support operational and product workflows. • Plan and break down backend projects into clear implementation steps and well-structured pull requests. • Own backend features and services end-to-end, from architecture decisions to production deployment. • Integrate backend systems with React-based web applications and Node.js services when required. • Build and maintain systems that prioritise reliability, observability, and fault tolerance. • Work with AWS and DevOps infrastructure to deploy, operate, and scale backend services. • Investigate and troubleshoot complex production issues across services, data systems, and infrastructure. • Write clear technical documentation describing system behaviour, architecture decisions, and operational processes. • Use AI tools effectively to accelerate development, debugging, and technical research while maintaining high engineering standards.
