Back End Developer

Role Overview

We are hiring a Senior Backend Engineer to help build the systems that power our clients data platform. This role focuses on designing and implementing backend services and data pipelines that handle large-scale industrial telemetry. The nature of this data — high volume, high frequency, and high cardinality — requires thoughtful system design beyond typical off-the-shelf solutions.

You will work on high-performance services in Rust, help shape our data architecture, and contribute to the evolution of our infrastructure as we expand toward more cloud-based systems. Your work will directly support core product capabilities, including reporting, analytics, and real-time system visibility.

What You'll Do

• Design and build scalable backend services in Rust.
• Develop telemetry ingestion pipelines for high-frequency sensor data.
• Build storage systems optimized for efficient querying and long-term data retention.
• Collaborate with product and engineering teams to define system architecture and requirements.
• Contribute to the transition of systems from on-premise to cloud-based infrastructure.
• Help shape the long-term direction of our data platform.
• Build reliable, production-grade systems with a focus on performance and maintainability.

Must-Have Experience

• 7+ years of backend or systems engineering experience.
• 3+ years experience with Rust.
• Experience building data pipelines, distributed systems, or backend infrastructure.
• Experience working with high-throughput, time-series, and high-cardinality data.
• Experience designing data storage and querying systems.
• Ability to work through ambiguity and contribute to system design decisions.

Plusses

• Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, etc.).
• Experience with streaming/data processing systems (Kafka, Spark, Flink).
• Familiarity with relational and non-relational databases (PostgreSQL, CockroachDB, HBase, etc.).
• Experience working with hardware, IoT, or industrial data systems.
