Role overview

As Staff Engineer, you will own the technical direction for backend services and analytics pipelines. The work spans defining standards, guiding a small team of 1–3 engineers, and leading by example through active coding. The position requires experience building scalable backend systems for consumer or product-led companies, along with a deep understanding of analytics infrastructure, including event taxonomy, data governance, experimentation, and attribution tools.

What you will do

  • Audit existing backend and analytics systems to identify critical gaps and improvement areas.
  • Establish or refine engineering standards, implement automated testing, and track KPIs for reliability, data quality, and development efficiency.
  • Lead the analytics infrastructure: refine event taxonomy, reconcile tools, and improve data reliability for the team.
  • Set the technical vision for at least one major backend or data initiative and guide it through to production.
  • Build strong working relationships with product and engineering stakeholders through clear, proactive communication.

Key responsibilities

  • Oversee delivery and ongoing operation of backend systems, from architecture through production.
  • Define and evolve backend engineering processes, standards, and best practices.
  • Develop and use KPIs to monitor system reliability, development speed, data quality, and error rates.
  • Make system-level architectural decisions and communicate trade-offs to engineering and product teams.
  • Manage analytics infrastructure, including event taxonomy, governance, and tool reconciliation (e.g., Amplitude, Appsflyer).
  • Develop and maintain experimentation infrastructure: A/B testing, variant assignment, and defining success metrics.
  • Debug and maintain user and identity systems across login, logout, multi-device, and reinstall scenarios.
