This role is designed for a heavyweight backend architect with over a decade of experience building high-availability distributed systems. You should be someone who thrives at the intersection of infrastructure and product, capable of designing the foundation for complex AI-driven applications. The ideal candidate has deep expertise in AWS/GCP, Kubernetes, and Infrastructure-as-Code, with a track record of mentoring senior engineers and influencing technical strategy across multiple teams.
The compensation is highly competitive, with U.S. base salaries reaching up to $285k (and Canadian ranges up to $324k CAD), supplemented by equity and a company-wide bonus program. This is a fully remote position offering exceptional benefits, including a 401(k) match, a sabbatical program after five years, and dedicated stipends for your home office and wellness. You’ll have the opportunity to transition experimentation-heavy AI projects into robust, platform-grade services.
**You might be a good fit if you:**
* Have 10+ years of experience in distributed systems and scaling multi-region cloud environments.
* Are "backend-leaning" but comfortable across the full stack (Node, Go, or TypeScript).
* Enjoy setting high engineering standards through system design reviews and architectural mentorship.
* Want to build the infrastructure that powers agentic AI and next-generation web development tools.
