Description

The company builds software and AI automation for physical commodity trading, turning information spread across emails, documents and existing systems into reliable workflows for trade execution and operations.

Its customers work with energy, metals and agricultural products.

Day to day, you will partner with the founders and customers, own meaningful parts of the product, and see your work used in real operations.

Success means owning an important product area, shipping improvements customers use, and making the system easier to run and extend while helping the team move quickly with fewer avoidable failures.

Responsibilities

  • Build APIs, data pipelines and product features that commodity operations depend on.
  • Connect messy outside data to the systems customers rely on, with dependable integrations.
  • Work across the whole stack to clear bottlenecks and deliver complete customer workflows.
  • Strengthen testing, observability and operational reliability as the product and team grow.
  • Explain technical tradeoffs clearly, review code and help other engineers make sound decisions.
  • Decide priorities with the founders and customers and take ownership of the results.

Requirements

  • Take an ambiguous problem, choose a practical approach and own delivery through production.
  • Have independently shipped and operated substantial production software.
  • Know APIs, data modeling, debugging and system design well.
  • Have depth in backend or full-stack engineering and be willing to work outside your main specialty.
  • Make sound calls with incomplete requirements and follow through after launch.
  • Communicate risks, progress and tradeoffs clearly.
  • Useful experience: work at an early-stage company or own a broad product area on a small team.
  • Useful experience: enterprise integrations, data-heavy workflows or operational software.
  • Useful experience: ship AI-powered features with evaluation and human review where needed.

Conditions

Base salary of $200,000 to $250,000 USD per year.

Interviews begin with either a 15-minute introductory call followed by a separate 1-hour technical screen, or one 1-hour session made up of a 15-minute introduction and a 45-minute technical exercise.

A second technical screen may be added before the onsite, depending on what still needs to be explored together.

You will hear about each next step and what to prepare beforehand.
