Job Description
Back-End Software Engineer
MasteryPrep
• Own the generation, quality, and reliability of backend code produced through AI-assisted development workflows. • Define and maintain clear acceptance criteria and test cases prior to implementation, ensuring a strict test-driven development approach. • Review, refine, and approve AI-generated backend code to ensure it meets functional, performance, and reliability requirements. • Provide structured guidance and constraints to AI systems so generated code aligns with established backend architecture, data models, and service patterns. • Write code as necessary to fill in gaps and bridge the last mile. • Ensure backend implementations handle edge cases, error conditions, and failure scenarios correctly. • Act as the final quality checkpoint for backend code prior to merge or deployment. • Collaborate with product, front-end, and QA partners to translate requirements into precise, testable backend behavior. • Maintain high standards for data integrity, security, and system observability.
Job Requirements
- Senior-level experience designing, building, and maintaining backend systems in production environments.
- Strong experience practicing test-driven development, including defining and maintaining clear, meaningful test cases.
- Proven ability to evaluate backend code for quality, maintainability, performance, and operational safety.
- Hands-on experience using AI-assisted development tools, with an understanding of their strengths and limitations in backend contexts.
- Experience working with modern backend technologies (e.g., TypeScript, Python, Postgres, Google Firestore, React and Storybook, API design).
- Strong understanding of data modeling, transactional integrity, and error handling.
- Ability to translate product requirements into precise, testable backend specifications.
- Strong written communication skills and comfort providing clear, structured guidance to AI systems and engineering peers.
- High attention to detail and a demonstrated bias toward correctness and reliability over speed.
Benefits
- Employee benefits eligibility (health, disability, AD&D, life insurance).
