Role Overview
As a Senior Software Engineer on this team, you will own the design and delivery of core backend services, drive integration architecture with third-party platforms, and help establish the engineering patterns. You will work closely with product, design, and customer-facing teams to ensure what gets built solves real problems elegantly.
Key Responsibilities
Platform & Backend Engineering
* Design and build scalable, highly available Java microservices on AWS from scratch
* Define and own the data model for time tracking entities — entries, projects, users, billing cycles
* Architect RESTful and event-driven APIs consumed by web, mobile, and third-party clients
* Own the full AWS infrastructure for your services: Lambda, ECS/EKS, RDS/Aurora, SQS, S3, CloudWatch
* Implement CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions or AWS Code Pipeline, with automated testing gates
Integrations
* Build bi-directional sync between the time tracking platform and Airtable bases via the Airtable API
* Integrate with Linear to link time entries to issues, projects, and cycles — keeping both systems in sync
* Develop Slack workflows: slash commands, interactive modals, notifications, and Bolt-based event subscriptions
* Design an integration framework that can onboard new third-party connectors without re-architecting core services
* Handle webhooks, OAuth 2.0 flows, token management, and rate limiting for all external platforms
AI-First Development
* Use AI coding assistants (e.G. GitHub Copilot, Claude, Cursor) as a core productivity tool throughout development
* Implement AI-powered features: intelligent time entry suggestions, anomaly detection, natural language querying of time data
* Leverage LLMs for smart auto-categorization of time entries based on calendar, Linear activity, or Slack context
* Contribute to prompt engineering, RAG pipelines, or fine-tuning workflows as the product roadmap evolves
* Evaluate and recommend AI/ML services (AWS Bedrock, SageMaker, OpenAI, Anthropic APIs) appropriate to each use case
Quality & Collaboration
* Write clean, well-tested Java code — unit, integration, and contract tests are non-negotiable
* Participate in architecture reviews, PR reviews, and cross-functional planning sessions
* Contribute to runbooks, ADRs (Architecture Decision Records), and internal documentation
Required Qualifications
Core (Must-Have)
* 5+ years of professional software engineering experience
* Backend: Strong Java proficiency
* Spring Boot or Quarkus for microservices;
experience with reactive frameworks (Vert.X, WebFlux) a plus
* Cloud: Deep AWS expertise
* Hands-on experience with Lambda, ECS or EKS, RDS/Aurora, SQS/SNS, API Gateway, IAM, CloudFormation or CDK
* APIs: REST API and event-driven architecture design and implementation
* OAuth 2.0, webhook design, idempotency, and third-party API integration patterns
* AI Tooling: Demonstrable AI-first mindset
* Regular use of AI coding tools xhfqzwm and willingness to bring LLM-powered features into production
* Greenfield: Proven ability to contribute meaningfully on a greenfield project — from blank canvas to production
Integration Experience (Highly Desirable)
* Airtable API — reading/writing records, managing bases, handling webhooks
* Linear API or GraphQL-based project management tool integrations
* Slack Bolt SDK — building apps, slash commands, modals, interactive components
* Experience building a reusable integration or connector framework
AI / ML (Desirable)
* Working knowledge of LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, AWS Bedrock)
* Experience with prompt engineering, RAG, or embeddings in a production context
* Familiarity with AWS SageMaker or similar ML deployment pipelines
* Understanding of responsible AI practices — latency, cost, hallucination mitigation
Nice to Have
* Experience in the time tracking, workforce management, or project management SaaS domain
* Frontend exposure — React or TypeScript — to collaborate closely with full-stack requirements
* Familiarity with multi-tenancy patterns and SaaS billing / subscription models
* Contributions to open-source projects or public technical writing
* Experience with observability tooling: Datadog, Open Telemetry, AWS X-Ray
