Senior Software Engineer

Our client is redefining fulfillment, warehousing, and logistics with robot-powered operations built for speed, scale, and accuracy. E-commerce brands depend on them to move inventory, process orders, and deliver same-day shipping across key metro markets. As they launch and scale their platform, you'll be joining a lean, high-velocity team-and influencing everything they build.

Role Overview

We're looking for a highly capable Founding Software Engineer with strong backend skills in Python / Django and a willingness to roll up their sleeves across the stack (including frontend when needed). You'll work closely with the CTO to design, build, and scale our core platform. This is a high-impact role where you'll shape engineering culture, deliver mission-critical systems, and help our business and operations move faster.

Key Responsibilities

• Architect, build, and maintain backend systems and APIs using Python and Django to support core logistics, fulfillment, order management, and operational workflows.
• Own infrastructure on AWS : design scalable, secure, and high-availability services that meet operational SLAs.
• Take ownership of both backend and frontend development as the sole engineer, implementing product features end-to-end and ensuring smooth, high-quality user experiences.
• Work directly with the CTO to define the technical roadmap, deliver features end-to-end, and iterate quickly based on business feedback.
• Build engineering practices and standards : code review frameworks, documentation, observability (logging, monitoring), CI / CD pipelines, and performance optimization.
• Be a key voice in shaping the engineering culture-from hiring decisions to team norms-setting the bar for quality, ownership, and collaboration.
• Support operations / data efforts : engage directly with stakeholders (product, operations, warehouse / logistics teams) to translate real-world fulfillment challenges into scalable software solutions.
