ABOUT THE TEAM

We build remote desktop software for high-performance workstations. The product must be invisible, ultra-fast, and production grade for enterprise customers. We’re a small, senior R&D team obsessed with squeezing milliseconds out of systems, shipping products that scale to millions of users, and delivering engineering work you can be proud of.


WHAT YOU’LL OWN

  • Operate and evolve the core backend powering authentication, permissions, admin tooling, telemetry, and high-performance network relays.
  • Design and implement secure, multi-region systems and APIs that support millions of users with enterprise-grade security.
  • Lead refactors and additions to a complex server codebase (monolith → clean architecture preferred).
  • Partner closely with product, support, and infrastructure to ship features end-to-end and iterate with customers.

SKILLS & QUALIFICATIONS

  • 7–15 years building backend systems in startups or scale-ups (enterprise SaaS a big plus).
  • Strong track record of shipping secure, reliable, and performant backend services.
  • Comfortable with owning large areas of a product and making pragmatic tradeoffs.
  • Happy to go deep: prefer building the right low-dependency solution rather than bolting on the latest library.
  • Product- and customer-focused. You care about fit & finish and good UX for admins and IT users.

NICE TO HAVE

  • Experience with API/permissions modeling, complex admin/enterprise features, telemetry/event systems, or large refactors of monoliths.
  • Go experience preferred but we’ll hire Go-curious engineers coming from Java, Django, Rails, or C# backgrounds.


COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

  • $180,000 to $250,000 USD base salary per year
  • Equity 
  • Comprehensive healthcare benefits
  • Generous PTO
  • And more...


**This is not a guarantee of compensation or salary, a final offer amount may vary based on factors including but not limited to experience and geographic location.
