About the role

  • This is a rare opportunity to join Midstream at a formative stage and help shape the technical foundation of the platform.
  • From multi-tenant architecture and security boundaries to developer workflows and observability, you'll turn ambiguity into durable systems that reduce operational overhead and compound engineering velocity.

Responsibilities

  • Build shared platform patterns and tooling that help engineers ship new backend services and workflows quickly, safely, and consistently.
  • Design infrastructure that is clean, reviewable, and repeatable-reducing one-off configurations and enabling faster iteration.
  • Help ensure the team can spend more time building new capabilities-and less time maintaining systems-as customer usage and data volume grow.
  • Build the agentic orchestration layer for tools and and agents to power our natural language analytics that enables rapid discovery of insights with source document traceability.
  • You're comfortable building APIs, asynchronous workflows, background jobs, integrations, and foundational systems-balancing infrastructure leadership with delivering real product functionality.
  • Drive ideas from discovery to delivery with autonomy and trust.
  • You'll work at the intersection of product, systems, and cloud infrastructure, designing and building the distributed systems that allow a small team to move fast, safely, and with confidence as the company scales.
  • You'll partner closely with engineers and leadership to understand where infrastructure creates friction today, and where it will quietly break tomorrow if left unaddressed.
  • We're looking for a systems-minded software engineer who cares deeply about long-term maintainability and developer experience, but who also loves developing backend services and shipping a real software.
  • Someone who can reason about distributed systems, make pragmatic tradeoffs, and build infrastructure that fades into the background, so the team can stay focused on delivering meaningful product value.

Requirements

  • You have strong instincts for designing distributed systems and scalable SaaS platforms, with a focus on clear ownership, isolation, and reliability.
  • You know how to leverage cloud-native services for computing, storage, and ML-enabled applications as the platform grows.
  • You enjoy creating reusable patterns, templates, and automation that help teams ship faster with fewer operational burdens.
