Grid is a fast-growing company focused on leveling the financial playing field by building innovative financial products. They are seeking Senior Backend Engineers to develop and enhance their backend systems that support user experiences and core financial operations.

Responsibilities:

• You’ll build the core systems behind Grid’s products. From the services that directly control our users' experience to the transaction processing and financial ledgering systems that power everything we ship. You will have the opportunity to contribute to every layer of our product and core financial infrastructure
• You’ll own systems end to end — from design and implementation through deployment and production support — using our rapid CI/CD pipeline to ship improvements daily. We take a data-driven, iterative approach to building toward ambitious goals through well-engineered, incremental releases
• Grid is deeply data-driven, with robust pipelines and analytics infrastructure across the platform. You’ll use SQL and analytical tools to evaluate product and system performance and help define what success looks like by shaping the metrics that guide our decisions
• Grid’s backend is built around Pub/Sub and asynchronous workflows. You’ll design and operate distributed, event-driven systems; reasoning about state, consistency, and failure modes to deliver reliable, seamless user experiences at scale
