Job Description
We are seeking a Search Platform Developer with hands-on experience designing, deploying, and operating AWS OpenSearch–based search solutions. This role focuses on building scalable, production-grade search infrastructure and backend services that ingest, normalize, index, and query data from multiple content sources.
You will work closely with product, frontend, and cloud engineering teams to deliver performant, secure, and reliable search capabilities using AWS-native services, while supporting real-world client-facing search deployments.
This role is ideal for a mid-to-experienced developer who enjoys working at the intersection of search engineering, backend services, data ingestion, and cloud architecture.
RESPONSIBILITIES
- Design, build, and maintain AWS OpenSearch indexes, mappings, analyzers, and index templates
- Develop .NET 8 (C#) backend services that ingest, index, and query data from OpenSearch
- Implement and optimize OpenSearch query DSL for performance, relevance, and scalability
- Design and maintain data ingestion pipelines that collect content from:
- Databases (relational and NoSQL)
- File-based sources (S3, documents, exports)
- External systems and APIs
- Websites or content feeds (where applicable)
- Normalize, enrich, and transform content prior to indexing (metadata extraction, text processing, field mapping)
- Build and expose search APIs using AWS Lambda and API Gateway
- Support batch and near–real-time indexing workflows
- Deploy and operate services on AWS ECS and/or EC2
- Monitor, troubleshoot, and tune OpenSearch cluster health, indexing throughput, and query performance
- Collaborate with frontend teams building React-based search experiences
- Participate in architectural discussions around search relevance, scalability, and data modeling
- Support client search deployments, including environment setup, tuning, and ongoing optimization
- rite clean, maintainable, and well-tested backend code
- Participate in code reviews and technical design discussions
QUALIFICATIONS
- 4+ years of experience in backend, search, or data-focused development
- Hands-on experience with AWS OpenSearch (or Elasticsearch on AWS)
- Strong understanding of search fundamentals:
- Indexing strategies
- Mappings and analyzers
- Query DSL and relevance scoring
- Professional experience with C# / .NET 8
- Experience building RESTful APIs (Lambda, API Gateway, or container-based services)
- Experience ingesting and indexing data from multiple content sources, including databases, files, and external systems
- Familiarity with AWS services, including:
- OpenSearch
- Lambda
- API Gateway
- S3
- ECS and/or EC2
- AWS Glue
- Experience deploying and supporting production search systems for clients
- Solid understanding of distributed systems and performance optimization
- Comfortable working in AWS cloud-native environments
Nice-to-Have QUALIFICATIONS
- Experience with OpenSearch Dashboards
- Relevance tuning, scoring strategies, or custom analyzers
- Frontend experience with React (search UI integration)
- Experience with Docker and containerized deployments
- CI/CD experience (GitHub Actions, AWS CodePipeline, etc.)
- Knowledge of event-driven or streaming systems (SQS, SNS, Kafka, etc.)
- Experience with web content ingestion, crawling, or structured content extraction
- Experience securing search systems (IAM, VPCs, fine-grained access control)
Must be a U.S. Citizen and U.S. based.
