About the Role
Manifold is seeking a Software Engineer to build the core architecture and foundational systems powering our software. You will own the application infrastructure, including authentication, authorization, data storage, APIs, and application services. This is an early, high-ownership role where you will work closely with the founding engineering team to turn a prototype into a scalable production application.
Responsibilities
- Design and implement authentication, role-based access control, data storage, permissioning, API integrations, and shared services.
- Design scalable application architecture, making technical decisions about service boundaries, data models, APIs, and system design.
- Own backend systems end-to-end, from requirements through design, implementation, testing, and deployment.
- Establish application engineering standards, including automated tests, clear API contracts, and maintainable systems.
- Build reusable components, interfaces, and services to enable rapid product development.
- Collaborate with Founding Engineer on domain-specific capabilities, Forward Deployed Engineers on customer requirements, and Platform Engineers on production deployment.
Requirements
- Strong software engineering fundamentals with deep experience building backend services, APIs, and database-backed applications.
- Experience designing, implementing, testing, and deploying production software used by real customers.
- Ability to independently own complex engineering projects from technical design through production deployment.
- Strong systems design skills and the ability to evaluate architectural tradeoffs across scalability, performance, security, and maintainability.
