Job Description

Honor Technology's mission is to change the way society cares for older adults. As a leader in aging care innovation, Honor provides the technology, tools, and services that empower older adults to live life on their own terms. Honor's growing portfolio includes its consumer care brand, Home Instead, Inc., the world's leading provider of in-home care for older adults. With a global franchise network and more than 100,000 Care Pros, Home Instead delivers over 50 million hours of personalized care annually.

Together, Honor and Home Instead are setting a new standard for aging in place, backed by powerful technology, compassionate care, and a commitment to aging on your own terms.

Join us to create a new and better aging experience for our clients, their families, and our Care Professionals.

As a Senior Backend Engineer at Honor :

  • You care about building systems that have real-world impact.
  • You're creative and curious, and enjoy thinking outside the box.
  • You thrive in diverse, cross-functional environments, collaborating with design, product, data, and care operations.
  • You have a builder's mindset, evolving systems from design through operation.
  • You enjoy sharing knowledge, mentoring others, and contributing to a healthy, inclusive engineering culture.
  • You're an excellent, proactive communicator — able to translate complex ideas (both in writing and verbally) into clear, actionable solutions for technical and non-technical partners.

We're looking for you to bring :

  • Strong backend engineering experience, with a track record of building and operating production systems.
  • Experience designing relational data models and working with databases at scale.
  • Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS preferred) and service-oriented architectures.
  • Experience with API design, distributed systems, and backend performance considerations.
  • Proficiency in Python or transferable backend experience with a willingness to learn Python.
  • About the role :

    You'll work on core services that power how families find care and how Care Professionals do their work—systems that directly support Honor's mission every day.

    Depending on your interests and experience, you may join one of the following teams :

  • Workforce Team — building the systems that support Care Professionals, including hiring, scheduling, and workforce optimization.
  • DemandGen Team — powering Honor's public digital experiences and growth channels that help thousands of families find the care they need.
  • Growth Team — developing a multi-channel sales and communication stack (phone, sms, email) that connects families, Care Professionals, and care operations.
  • Why you 'll love working with us

  • Your work will shape how people discover and receive the care they need.
  • You'll solve real, complex problems at the intersection of engineering, operations, and human impact.
  • You'll collaborate with thoughtful, mission-driven teammates across engineering, product, design, and operations.
  • You'll have ownership, autonomy, and the opportunity to grow as both an engineer and a product-minded technologist.
