Senior Software Engineer

ClanX

Requirements

4+ years in backend and distributed systems, including real architecture ownership.
You've designed systems that stayed correct and affordable under scale and concurrency.
Deep judgment on data modelling, consistency, isolation, and failure modes.
You've made a fast-growing team better through standards, review, and mentorship.
Calm with ambiguity; you bring order to it.

Bonus Qualifications

Worked on agentic/AI systems, event-sourced architectures, or high-stakes transactional systems.
Tamed a runaway cost or reliability problem in a complex system.
Opinions on where automated systems need hard limits and human confirmation.

Responsibilities

Own backend architecture as the team and product scale several-fold.
Design the boundaries and safety that keep autonomous, AI-driven systems correct, bounded, and affordable.
Get multi-tenant isolation, reliability, and performance right.
Make the hard design and build-vs-buy calls, and write the standards the team builds against.
Raise the bar through review and mentorship.

30 / 60 / 90-Day Expectations

30 days: you've absorbed the architecture, found the sharpest risks, and are already shaping decisions.
60 days: you own architecture for core systems and have led a foundational design the team is building on.
90 days: you're the architecture owner, standards, boundaries, and the bar are set by you.
