Senior Software Engineer

Our client is a U.S.-based SaaS company operating a production platform used daily by field teams to capture and sync inspection data. The product is established, actively scaling, and continues to evolve while supporting customers who depend on it in real-world conditions.

You'll own backend systems that handle data, background processing, and integrations inside a live SaaS platform. New features still need to be built, but they must land safely inside workflows customers already rely on - often under unreliable connectivity and operational constraints.

You'll take work from idea to production: clarifying requirements, designing backend systems, building them, and deploying safely. Some systems are new. Others exist but can't support what the product needs next. Your job is to grow the platform without making it fragile.

This is a backend-first role. You'll occasionally touch frontend or mobile code to support end-to-end workflows, but your core responsibility is backend reliability and system evolution.
