[Remote] Senior Software Engineer
Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Ethiq is a Series A startup focused on building AI solutions for businesses. The Senior Software Engineer will design and build backend systems, create integrations, and develop internal tooling to enhance team efficiency.
Responsibilities
- Designing and building backend systems in Python (FastAPI), from the API contract down to the database schema and the infra it runs on
- Building connectors and pipelines that plug the product into whatever the customer already runs: their tools, their data, their systems, however messy
- Writing the internal libraries and tooling that make everyone else on the team faster
- Owning problems end to end. Nobody hands you a ticket. You get the context, scope the thing, build it, ship it, and own whether it worked
- Wearing a few hats on a normal day: design a schema in the morning, build the API in the afternoon, debug a deploy before you log off
- Sitting in product conversations, watching how customers actually use what you built, and having a real say in what gets built next
Skills
- 3+ years writing backend software you're actually proud of
- You write Python and/or TypeScript to a high standard
- Strong typing feels like a tool, not a tax
- You've built libraries, SDKs, or internal tooling that made other engineers' lives easier, and you enjoyed it
- You get a small, specific satisfaction out of a clean data model
- You're good with ambiguity
- You've worked somewhere small and fast, or it's obvious you want to
