Overview

Senior Backend Developer, Content & Personalization (Remote, Canada) – Amuse

Join to apply for the Senior Backend Developer, Content & Personalization (Remote, Canada) role at Amuse.

This range is provided by Amuse. Your actual pay will be based on your skills and experience — talk with your recruiter to learn more.

Base pay range: $120,000.00/yr - $140,000.00/yr

Amuse is a platform that helps people discover local arts and culture. Think of it as your personal travel guide: but instead of lecturing you for an hour, it enriches your daily life with little nuggets of information, even when you’re not on vacation.

You will have the rare opportunity to work with a tight-knit team building the services that power a complex software platform from the ground up.

What you’ll do

  • Work on core backend project that powers the content for the Amuse Platform (the app for curious people)
  • Think about problems deeply and break them down into clean, efficient solutions
  • Thrive on complex algorithms and how to serve the most interesting content to someone in real time
  • Design and implement reliable, well-structured APIs and data models
  • Dream about GIS data and how data points can relate to each other geo-spatially and algorithmically
  • Collaborate closely with other engineers to bring new features into production
  • Stay curious about new tools and techniques, and help shape ideas as the product evolves
  • Be considerate of and respectful to others as they are to you

What you need

  • Strong Go / Golang experience or equivalent in similar strongly typed compiled languages like Rust, Java, C++
  • Solid experience developing REST APIs and real-time applications
  • Experience or demonstrable facility with personalization and/or content ranking algorithms
  • Knowledge about data analytics and how it can assist in solving real world problems
  • Confidence building high quality systems with deep AI integrations
  • Comfortable using AI tools to accelerate your work, and curious about how new advances might improve engineering workflows
  • Deep understand of relational databases (PostGres, bonus if experience with PostGIS)
  • Ability to communicate effectively as part of a team of designers and front-end developers

Who you are

  • You don’t ask yourself how this can be done but how it can be done
  • You think about efficiency, scalability, and stability at every step of development
  • You want to learn and grow among an excellent team of engineers, and you welcome personal and team growth
  • You care about quality and have a keen attention to detail
  • You are inherently curious, and love figuring out how things work
  • You have devOps experience - extra bonus points if this includes S3 buckets, Snowflake, Digital Ocean, Kubernetes, Redis
  • You’ve worked on data-heavy or algorithmically complex systems
  • You love maps and GIS, and you have some experience with PostGIS, Mapbox API, and/or MTS
  • You have worked with a variety of media types like audio, video, images, and real-time geographic coordinates
  • Your previous work experience includes startups and/or small teams
  • You have experience in the museum or tourism industry

What we offer

  • Salary based on experience
  • Significant equity stake
  • Generous vacation policy & paid parental leave
  • Health stipend
  • Fully remote / work from home, autonomous work environment
  • Twice a year in-person meetups with travel
  • Opportunity for growth and upward mobility

Note: due to high volume of applications, we strongly recommend including a brief cover letter with your application. Remember, there are real people on the other end — this is a great opportunity to stand out.
