We’re building the Copilot for accountants!
Soraban is a post-product-market-fit B2B SaaS startup with rapidly growing ARR and customer usage. Our platform helps tax firms automate data intake and service delivery and we’re scaling fast. We’re hiring a Senior Backend Engineer to help us evolve our architecture, scale our systems, and deliver reliable, performant experiences to a rapidly growing customer base.
We’re a hybrid team (3 days in-office, 2 days remote), with offices in San Francisco, CA and Tempe, AZ.
Skills & experience we're looking for:
- Production experience with Ruby on Rails, and a deep understanding of PostgreSQL, ActiveRecord, and data modeling in a high-throughput app.
- Experience scaling backend systems and working with AWS services like RDS, ECS, and S3.
- Strong debugging and performance tuning skills (e.g. N+1 queries, memory usage, job queues).
- Comfortable with async processing (Sidekiq, queues, retries, idempotency).
- Strong communication skills and a track record of collaborating across functions.
Bonus if:
- You can think from customer’s perspective and iterate extremely quickly.
- You are a self-starter who doesn't need to be micromanaged.
- You have shipped a product end-to-end (from frontend to backend/API) and scaled to a ton of active users.
- Have experience with security best practices (auth, session management, secrets, logging).
- You are persistent and determined. You are the type of person who will go the distance to get the job done.
- You've directly worked with a founder before.
Important Note: Instead of a cover letter, please send over a link or anything that we can review to quickly figure out if we have a fit. Show us that you can build great products.
