About the role

Backend-focused SDE-3 role owning the Opportunities component of the CRM, including data models, APIs, and distributed workflows for pipelines, stages, automations, reporting, and integrations at scale. Remote with India location.

Responsibilities

  • Own the full lifecycle of Opportunities backend: translate business and customer needs into scalable, production-grade services
  • Design and evolve the data model for pipelines, stages, deals, and associated entities — getting consistency, throughput, and query patterns right
  • Build and scale APIs, event-driven workflows, and background jobs that handle high-volume writes, automations, and integrations
  • Tackle distributed systems concerns: idempotency, eventual consistency, race conditions, hot tenants, and noisy-neighbor isolation
  • Improve performance and reliability of large pipelines (millions of opportunities per workspace) through indexing, sharding, caching, and query optimization
  • Ship end-to-end when needed — including UI changes in Vue — without blocking on cross-functional handoffs
  • Instrument the system: logs, metrics, traces, and SLOs that make production behavior legible; Drive incident response, postmortems, and engineering hygiene for a high-traffic product
  • Drive incident response and postmortems to maintain health of a high-traffic product

Qualifications

  • 4+ years building and operating production backend systems at scale
  • Strong fundamentals in data modeling (SQL and NoSQL), API design, and distributed systems
  • Hands-on experience with Node.js or Go in production
  • Track record of owning services end-to-end — design, build, deploy, on-call
  • Comfort working independently in ambiguous problem spaces with high ownership
  • Solid grasp of scalability, performance, and reliability trade-offs
  • Experience building CRM, sales, pipeline, or workflow products
  • Worked on multi-tenant SaaS at scale (sharding, tenant isolation, fair-use limits)
  • Familiarity with event streaming (Kafka/Redis Streams), queues, and async processing
  • Exposure to MongoDB, Postgres, ElasticSearch, ClickHouse, or similar at non-trivial scale
  • Frontend fluency in Vue.js — enough to ship a feature without a frontend partner
  • Strong product instincts and a portfolio or GitHub of shipped work
