Atticus is a leading platform connecting people with disabilities to government benefits and helping victims of accidents secure compensation. They are seeking a Senior Backend Engineer to own and evolve their data integration infrastructure, ensuring the right data flows between systems to support growth initiatives.
Responsibilities
- Own and evolve our data integration infrastructure — data infrastructure, marketing enablement, customer communication tools, and experimentation data flows
- Build the connective tissue between Growth's external tools and internal systems
- Partner closely with the broader Growth team to translate fast-moving priorities into well-scoped, executable engineering work
- Balance velocity with system health — make deliberate tradeoffs and document your reasoning
- Work across our full product stack as needed; this is a backend-focused role but we deeply value a generalist product engineering mindset
Skills
- 5+ years of production software experience, with meaningful time in a startup or high-ownership environment
- Data & experimentation infrastructure experience — and a genuine interest in going deeper on this skillset
- Demonstrated ability to weigh technical tradeoffs between velocity and system health and make a defensible call
- Experience translating ambiguous product requirements into scoped, well-defined work units — you're allergic to silos and knowledge hoarding
- History of working closely with a strong PM on a user-facing team; you think about the end user, not just the implementation
- An understanding of the highly iterative nature of Growth/top-of-funnel work — willingness to abandon unsuccessful experiments
- Previous experience on a Growth or marketing-adjacent engineering team
- Familiarity with Go, GCP, Kubernetes, or Terraform
- Experience with Salesforce data pipelines or CRM integrations
- Background in legal, healthcare, or financial services
Benefits
- Medical and dental insurance with 100% of employees and their families premiums covered
- 15 vacation days & ~20 paid holidays each year (including two weeks at the end-of-year)
- Free membership to OneMedical
- $600/year internet stipend
- $1,000 reimbursable stipend for education and training outside of work
- Up to $1,200/year student loan repayment assistance
- 401(k) and optional HSA/FSA
- Work remotely, and travel to LA (on the company dime) as needed to be with your colleagues 6somewhere between quarterly and yearly
