Job Summary:

We are looking for a skilled and motivated Backend Engineer with 2 to 4 years of professional experience to join our dynamic engineering team. You will play a key role in designing, building, and maintaining the backend systems that power our products. You’ll work closely with cross-functional teams to deliver scalable, secure, and high-performance solutions that align with business and user needs.

This role is ideal for engineers ready to take ownership of systems, contribute to architectural decisions, and solve complex backend challenges.

Website: https://www.thealteroffice.com/about

Key Responsibilities:

• Design, build, and maintain robust backend systems and APIs that are scalable and maintainable.
• Collaborate with product, frontend, and DevOps teams to deliver seamless, end-to-end solutions.
• Model and manage data using SQL (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL) and NoSQL databases (e.g., MongoDB, Redis), incorporating caching where needed.
• Implement and manage authentication, authorization, and data security practices.
• Write clean, well-documented, and well-tested code following best practices.
• Work with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure) to deploy, monitor, and scale services effectively.
• Use tools like Docker (and optionally Kubernetes) for containerization and orchestration of backend services.
• Maintain and improve CI/CD pipelines for faster and safer deployments.
• Monitor and debug production issues, using observability tools (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, ELK) for root cause analysis.
• Participate in code reviews, contribute to improving development standards, and provide support to less experienced engineers.
• Work with event-driven or microservices-based architecture, and optionally use technologies like GraphQL, WebSockets, or message brokers such as Kafka or RabbitMQ when suitable for the solution.

Requirements:

• 2 to 4 years of professional experience as a Backend Engineer or similar role.
• Proficiency in at least one backend programming language (e.g., Python, Java, Go, Ruby, etc.).
• Strong understanding of RESTful API design, asynchronous programming, and scalable architecture patterns.
• Solid experience with both relational and NoSQL databases, including designing and optimizing data models.
• Familiarity with Docker, Git, and modern CI/CD workflows.
• Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure and deployment processes (AWS, GCP, or Azure).
• Exposure to monitoring, logging, and performance profiling practices in production environments.
• A good understanding of security best practices in backend systems.
• Strong problem-solving, debugging, and communication skills.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, agile environment with evolving priorities.

The tech stack looks like the below (expect this to change as we scale):

1. Typescript for APIs (REST and GraphQL)
2. Kafka, Spark, and data warehouses for ML pipelines (spark on python/scala)
3. Solidity + hardhat for smart contracts (in the future, rust, go and move)
4. AWS & Terraform
5. Full nodes

You can expect to do some or all of the following:

1. Read through protocols’ whitepapers and smart contracts to derive metrics and analyze risks
2. Architect the backend for APIs, async jobs, and blockchain integration
3. Build clean, concise APIs for customer integration, along with the documentation
4. Setup, run and maintain full and archive nodes across different chains
5. Integrate with multiple partners like exchanges and custody providers
6. Fool-proof security across the stack - encryption, hashing, privacy, VPC, etc.
7. Infrastructure as code - build terraform scripts and ensure easy replication of the infra across different regions
8. Research the top DeFi protocols to uncover better insights for our customers and evaluate their risk profiles, security, and historical returns
9. Manage production deployments, logging, and monitoring

We expect you to be fairly comfortable with working with both web3 and web2 stacks. We do not expect that you have web3 experience on day 1, but you should be willing to wear multiple hats, learn things quickly and move fast.

1. Generalist, a solid engineer who can learn things on your own and have an eye for clean, tested, and well-documented code
2. We don’t look at the number of years of work experience as a criterion, but rather see what you have done in your life so far (side projects, open-source contributions, blogs, etc.). We don’t care about degrees, the institutions you went to, or the companies you worked for before. We are open to talking as long as you have good judgment, great clarity, align with our values and have a strong track record of thoughtful work
3. Understand the fundamentals of building and integrating APIs and secure systems. Bonus if you know a bit about blockchains and protocols
4. You can be strong on the backend, front-end, or can dabble everywhere. We want you to play to your strengths and will provide enough opportunities to learn and do things outside of your comfort zone

Pay and benefits We offer a solid, competitive package (including early-stage equity) that is location agnostic. We give you the flexibility to choose the split between cash and equity.
