at Nash
San Francisco, United StatesHybrid
Responsibilities
- - Own complex systems from architecture through deployment, observability, and continuous performance work in production.
- - Build and harden the integrations that connect Nash to fragmented carrier networks, fleet systems, and partner APIs, treating reliability as a first-class product feature.
- - Collaborate with frontend, product, design, and data partners to ship intelligent, user-first experiences, and with operations to encode real-world workflows into how the system runs.
Requirements
- About the Role We are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to design and build the systems at the core of the Autonomic Logistics OS: the services that turn real-world constraints into real-time decisions, route millions of jobs to the right execution path, and keep promises across fleets, gig networks, and carrier providers.
- What You’ll Bring - 5+ years building and shipping backend systems in production, with clear ownership of services that handled real load. - Strong proficiency in Python and modern backend frameworks.
- Experience with Go or TypeScript is a plus.
- - Fluency designing RESTful APIs and working with relational databases (PostgreSQL, AWS RDS).
- - Solid command of cloud platforms (AWS preferred), managed services (serverless, queues, databases), and CI/CD pipelines.
- Experience with AsyncIO, event-driven architectures, or integration-heavy systems. - Familiarity with risk, security, or compliance-driven domains. - A track record building distributed systems that process large transaction volumes with strict reliability requirements. - Exposure to AI or rule-based automation systems, especially in operational contexts. - Prior startup experience (not required).
- More about Nash http://Nash.AI NASH IS THE PLATFORM THAT POWERS MODERN LOGISTICS.
- Real-time, AI-native intelligence determines what should happen, operational control executes it, and the platform dynamically orchestrates capacity from any source: a company's own fleets, partners, or the Nash delivery network.
Benefits
- You notice what needs improvement and act on it. - A collaborative communicator who writes clearly and partners well across functions. Bonus -
