At SyncSmart, we’re building the connective tissue for the modern SaaS ecosystem: a platform that makes it easy for businesses to move, sync, and transform data across CRMs, ERPs, and every tool in their stack.

The platform is live, architected by the founder. Now, we’re looking for a seasoned Backend Engineer to carry it forward—evolving the architecture, scaling the system, and taking ownership of mission-critical components as we move into our next phase of growth.

You’ll join a small team of full-stack engineers and creative technologists building production-grade infrastructure with purpose and momentum. We move fast, think deeply, and care about clean code, clear ownership, and building things that last.

What You’ll Do

  • Build core backend services in Go, with supporting systems and tooling written in TypeScript and Python where appropriate
  • Develop systems that ingest, transform, and synchronize data across third-party SaaS APIs
  • Ensure data integrity, traceability, and fault-tolerance across complex sync workflows
  • Work directly with REST APIs, OAuth2 flows, and webhook consumers
  • Own solutions end-to-end -- from architecture to implementation, testing, and deployment
  • Write thoughtful documentation for internal developers and external consumers
  • Contribute to a collaborative, high-trust, agile environment with a focus on autonomy and accountability
  • Implement engineering best practices in system design, testing, and observability

You Might Be a Fit If You:

  • Have 5+ years of backend development experience
  • Are fluent in Go and experienced with TypeScript (Node.js) and/or Python
  • Understand RESTful architecture, OAuth2, and the nuances of third-party APIs
  • Have worked with PostgreSQL, Redis, MongoDB, or similar data systems
  • Have built systems that handle data sync, integrations, or workflow automation
  • Are a systematic thinker who balances pragmatism with vision
  • Thrive in lean, fast-moving environments where you take initiative
  • Communicate clearly, document generously, and think like a mentor even when no one’s watching
  • Bring a problem-solver’s mindset to technical ambiguity and business constraints

Nice-to-Haves

  • Experience with AI-powered automation, data classification, or machine learning
  • Interest in architecture patterns for event-driven, multi-tenant, or high-throughput systems

Why Join SyncSmart

  • You’ll work directly with the founder and shape the technical core of a real, live platform
  • Your code will power meaningful data flows for companies that depend on seamless integration
  • You’ll have autonomy, trust, and room to grow—and your decisions will directly impact the product and company

We move quickly. We build thoughtfully. We respect craft. If you’re ready to take ownership and build something real, we’d love to meet you.
