About the RoleAs a Backend Software Engineer (IC3), you will help create the backend layer that supports agentic and conversational experiences for Spendesk end users.Your Scope Will Include Services Thatmanage conversations and contextual statesupport the ingestion and retrieval of rich content such as PDFs and imagesintegrate LLMs through AWS Bedrock with robust operational patternsconnect to MCP-compatible services and tools exposed by other squadsorchestrate multi‑step workflows combining reasoning, tool usage, and product actionsThis is not just about integrating services’ features to an LLM. You will build production‑grade services that need to be reliable, observable, secure, and designed for long‑term extensibility. You will contribute to reusable patterns and collaborate with ML Engineers, Product Managers, Designers, and applicative squads to make these foundations useful across multiple AI use cases.Our tech environmentType ScriptNode.Js for backend and banking applicationsReact on the frontendPostgre SQL for data storage; Redis, SQS, and Kafka for jobs, queues, and event streamingTerraform to define infrastructure as codeKubernetes, Lambdas, and Step Functions to run our applicationsAWS as our cloud provider, including AWS Bedrock for LLM accessGit Hub Actions for CIKey responsibilitiesBackend services for AI‑native experiencesDesign, build, and operate backend services and APIs that power conversational and agentic AI features.Implement the services needed for context management, tool invocation, rich content access, and multi‑step orchestration.Build robust patterns for integrating LLMs through AWS Bedrock, including retries, fallbacks, tracing, and cost‑aware usage.Ensure these services are designed for production from day one, with strong standards on reliability, maintainability, and security.Architecture & transversal system designPartner with the IC5 Staff Engineer to implement the architecture supporting AI‑native product experiences.Contribute to reusable service boundaries, contracts, and interfaces that can be adopted across squads.Help define how applicative squads can expose MCP‑compatible tools and capabilities to central AI services.Translate high‑level architectural direction into concrete technical implementations and scalable engineering patterns.Hands‑on delivery of complex systemsOwn complex backend components end‑to‑end, from design and implementation to deployment and maintenance.Contribute directly to proof‑of‑concepts and experiments, then harden the successful ones into reliable production services.Review code, challenge design decisions, and raise the quality bar on backend engineering within the squad.Bring pragmatism to delivery, balancing speed of experimentation with long‑term platform quality.Observability, performance & operational excellenceInstrument services with logs, tracing, and metrics to ensure strong production visibility and fast iteration.Help define and uphold quality standards around latency, failure handling, cost efficiency, and resilience.Contribute to a strong “you build it, you run it” culture, where backend engineers own what they ship in production.Ensure AI‑related services are built with secure coding and responsible data handling practices.Cross‑functional collaborationCollaborate with Product Managers and Designers to turn AI product concepts into concrete backend capabilities.Partner with applicative squads to connect backend services with the tools, context, and business actions needed by AI systems.Help create shared engineering knowledge around LLM integration, async workflows, and reliable AI feature delivery.What we’re looking forExperience & backgroundSignificant experience on backend software engineering in production environments.A strong track record of designing and shipping scalable backend services with clear ownership of reliability and maintainability.Experience contributing to complex technical projects in fast‑paced product organizations.Ideally, hands‑on exposure to AI‑enabled or LLM‑backed product features in production.Technical & data skillsStrong backend engineering skills with Type Script / Node.Js or adjacent technologies.Good fluency in service design, asynchronous architectures, and resilient distributed systems.Experience integrating APIs and external services into robust product backends.Practical experience, or strong interest, in integrating LLMs into production systems, ideally using platforms such as AWS Bedrock, Open AI, or Anthropic.Familiarity with technologies such as Kafka, SQS, Step Functions, Postgre SQL, and modern observability practices.Leadership & collaborationHighly autonomous and comfortable owning ambiguous technical problems from framing to delivery.Able to work effectively in partnership with a Staff Engineer while independently delivering complex components.Product‑minded, customer‑focused, and capable of translating business needs into backend systems.Curious about AI‑native product design and motivated by building durable foundations, not just short‑term demos.Fluent in written and spoken English, our business language.Nice To HaveExperience with conversational or agentic systemsExperience integrating LLMs with tool‑calling, guardrails, and evaluation loopsExperience with rich content processing, document workflows, or multimodal service designExperience in Saa S, fintech, or regulated environmentsNot ticking every box?
