Back-End Software Engineer

Who we are

Profitable, no outside investors, and no plans to take any. We grow when customers pay us.

What this job is

Fletcher Apps is looking for a Back-End Software Engineer to join a small, steady team. You'll work mostly on server-side code: services, queues, databases and the glue between them. Little to no frontend work. This hire will help us split a large monolith into a handful of well-defined services without breaking anything customers rely on. Remote, open to candidates across the US. We keep meetings to a minimum and work mostly async.

What you'll work on

• Containerize services with Docker and deploy them to Kubernetes or ECS
• Model data and write migrations for PostgreSQL, MySQL or DynamoDB
• Tune slow queries, add indexes and read query plans
• Review code for correctness, performance and failure handling

What you bring

• 3-5 years of backend development experience in a production environment
• Strong SQL and relational data modeling skills
• Experience designing and versioning HTTP APIs
• Understanding of concurrency, transactions, idempotency and retries

Compensation and benefits

Compensation: $151,000 - $172,000 annually

• Health, dental and vision coverage starting on day one
• 401(k) with company match
• Paid time off

Start: Immediately.
