About the Role

We are looking for a Backend Engineer with 5+ years of experience to join our Assess engineering team. You will build secure, scalable financial products and own, build, and scale our Assess backend infrastructure and product offering from the ground up. While backend systems (Python, Go, and Kubernetes) are your primary strength, a pragmatic, product-driven mindset is valued, with comfort in occasionally contributing to the React frontend.

Responsibilities

  • Co-own the entire back-end stack: Design, build, and maintain core micro-services in Python and Go.
  • Leverage AI-first workflows: Use AI-first development workflows to act as a force multiplier, moving fast without sacrificing code quality. Focus on creating detailed plans to be executed by agents rather than writing code directly. Use technical and analytic skills to evaluate the outcome and ensure generated code fulfills all requirements.
  • Own infrastructure: Manage, deploy, and scale services using Kubernetes, ensuring high availability and system reliability.
  • Collaborate on product & architecture: Partner directly with the team to make rapid architectural, tool selection, and product roadmap decisions.
  • Optimize for speed and security: Build fast, while maintaining high security and compliance standards necessary for financial systems.
  • Wear multiple hats: Run Dev Ops, monitor production systems, and occasionally touch the React/Typescript front-end to unblock feature releases.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience building and scaling production-grade back-end systems.
  • Deep, production-level expertise in Go and/or Python (comfort switching between both is key).
  • AI Tool Fluency: Highly proficient in leveraging AI-first coding workflows to maximize output and troubleshoot rapidly.
  • Hands-on Kubernetes experience: Ability to set up, debug, and manage containerized environments independently.
  • Product-oriented, "founder" mindset: Care about the user and the business, not just the code. Know when to build a perfect system and when to ship a scrappy MVP.
