About the role
Senior backend engineer role focused on building high-throughput, low-latency systems for HighLevel’s Conversations platform, handling multi-channel messaging at scale with ownership over design, implementation, and production health.
Responsibilities
- Design and build Node.js / Go services on critical paths — high throughput, low latency, zero tolerance for data loss
- Own systems end to end: architecture, design docs, code, tests, rollout, and production health
- Model and optimize data layers across SQL and NoSQL stores handling high read/write volumes and atomic updates
- Build queueing, caching, and rate-limiting layers that keep the platform graceful under burst traffic
- Instrument everything — logs, metrics, traces — so you know your system is healthy before anyone asks
- Debug production incidents, ship the fix, drive the post-mortem to closure
- Review code, raise the bar, and pull the engineers around you up with you
Qualifications
- 4+ years of backend engineering experience, with deep hands-on work in Node.js and/or Go
- Queueing experience — you've designed with Pub/Sub, Kafka, RabbitMQ, Cloud Tasks, or similar, and you understand delivery semantics, ordering, and backpressure
- Complex distributed systems experience — consistency trade-offs, idempotency, fault tolerance, systems that stay correct under partial failure
- Hands-on with Redis or other in-memory data stores — caching strategies, data structures, and their failure modes
- Strong with SQL or NoSQL databases — schema design, indexing, and query optimization at high volume
- You write clear design docs and rigorous test cases as a habit, not on request
- Champion of AI-assisted engineering — you make agents produce accurate, production-quality code, fast
