Working closely with product managers, designers, and backend engineers, you'll play an important role in enabling the newest technologies and experiences. You will build robust frameworks & features. You will empower both developers and Pinners alike. You'll have the opportunity to find creative solutions to thought-provoking problems.

What you'll do:

  • Build out the backend for Pinner-facing features to power the future of inspiration on Pinterest
  • Contribute to and lead each step of the product development process, from ideation to implementation to release; from rapidly prototyping, running A/B tests, to architecting and building solutions that can scale to support millions of users
  • Partner with design, product, and backend teams to build end-to-end functionality
  • Put on your Pinner hat to suggest new product ideas and features
  • Employ automated testing to build features with a high degree of technical quality, taking responsibility for the components and features you develop
  • Grow as an engineer by working with world-class peers on varied and high impact projects
  • Design, develop, and operate large scale, distributed systems and networks
  • Work with Engineering customers to understand new requirements and address them in a scalable and efficient manner
  • Actively work to improve the developer process and experience in all phases from coding to operation

What we're looking for:

  • 5+ years of industry backend development experience, building consumer or business facing products
  • Proficiency in common backend tech stacks for RESTful API, online service, storage, caching and data processing
  • Experience in following best practices in writing reliable and maintainable code that may be used by many other engineers
  • Ability to keep up-to-date with new technologies to understand what should be incorporated
  • Strong collaboration and communication skills
  • Experience leading or owning projects, mentoring others, or driving technical thought leadership
  • Experience building & operating large scale distributed systems and/or networks. Bonus points if you enjoy deploying and operating large scale workloads on a public cloud footprint
  • Experience in Python, Java, C++, or Go or another language and a willingness to learn
  • Bonus points if you have experience with any of the following (needs vary from team to team): Developer Enablement/Productivity or Internal Tooling, CI/CD, Generative AI/LLMs, Spark/Flink/Big Data technologies, Data Science/Analytics, Building Products or Internal Tools from Scratch
