About the Role

Our client is a well-funded profitable YC-backed startup (YC W22) modernizing the $12 trillion global construction industry. They solve a massive problem: connecting fragmented siloed software systemsmany of which are 20-40 years old on-prem and lack modern APIs. They build proprietary APIs to connect these systems and wrap them in a modern UI to automate critical work like syncing financial data between job sites and accounting offices. The company has over 200 paying customers is cash-flow positive and is backed by investors like Accel and leaders from Procore and Autodesk.

They are seeking a world-class New Grad Software Engineer who loves simplifying complex systems unifying fragmented data and building high-scale backend systems. This role offers high ownership and the chance to work on unique technical challenges that exist at the intersection of old-school enterprise and modern cloud infrastructure.

What Youll Be Doing (Interesting Technical Challenges)

Your core work will be split between backend and full-stack development with a focus on core infrastructure:

Unification: Unifying dozens to hundreds of fragmented heterogeneous systems under a single generic API standard defined by the company (covering data models authentication and features like filtering).
On-Prem Connectivity: Connecting with many types of legacy on-prem systems (SQL-based DLL-based API-based) and innovating to provide secure real-time communication and webhooks where they dont natively exist.
Scale & Speed: Handling millions of API requests per day and building elegant caching layers to efficiently store and retrieve large amounts of data reducing latency.
Operational Excellence: Creating a reliable SLA-enforced API layer on top of old unreliable systems (building a skyscraper on quicksand). This involves building creative scalable testing frameworks to catch edge cases across 1000 endpoints.
Full-Stack Development: Building internal front-end applications (Sync Analytics) that dog-food their own APIs ensuring the APIs are world-class.
Variety: Each new integration presents a unique archaeological and engineering challenge requiring deep research into its specific nuances.

0-1 years of experience as a backend or full-stack software engineer (New Grad level).
Must be able to work independently without much guidance.
Loves simplifying complex systems and unifying fragmented data.
Must be willing to work in-person 5 days/week in San Francisco.
