Build features end to end – API design, business logic, and integrations between the Ketryx platform and external systems and workflows. Contribute to improving latency, throughput, and fault tolerance across the backend stack.
Design and evolve PostgreSQL schemas, write efficient queries, and apply indexing strategies to keep the database performant as the product grows.
Write clean, well-tested code and contribute to standards around migrations, documentation, and testing.
Participate in monitoring, debugging, and incident response. Help identify performance bottlenecks and reliability issues, and contribute fixes.
Take features across the finish line in our React/Next.js frontend — you won't own the design system, but you should be comfortable building the UI for the backend work you ship.
Engage directly with customers, collect feedback, and shape product features with designers, product managers, and the Boston team (Pre-Sales, Sales, Post-Sales, Marketing). Provide technical support to customers alongside Client Operations.
