Description
Senior Backend EngineerLocation: Remote (Outside the U.S.)

Team Size: 4–5 Engineers
As a
Senior Backend Engineer at BSC Analytics, you’ll be part of a high-performing team of four to five engineers tackling complex platform challenges for large-scale enterprises. If you thrive on learning, moving fast, and solving real-world problems across a mix of environments — both modern and legacy — this role is for you.
Every week brings new opportunities to sharpen your technical skills, collaborate with top engineers, and grow your reputation as a trusted expert. You’ll work on platforms that power mission-critical systems — all within a flexible, remote-first culture that values deep expertise, autonomy, and continuous learning.
About the RoleWe’re looking for a
Senior Backend Engineer with a passion for building scalable, resilient systems that drive AI-powered innovation. You’ll be a key contributor to our backend architecture — designing APIs, scaling distributed systems, and collaborating closely with AI and product teams to bring cutting-edge ideas to production.
This isn’t a role for someone who just wants to maintain the status quo. At BSC Analytics, we move quickly, think boldly, and take ownership from concept to launch. You’ll join a culture that celebrates curiosity, encourages experimentation, and values engineers who balance technical excellence with a sense of humor and humility.
Key Responsibilities
- Design, build, and maintain scalable backend services and APIs to support AI/ML-powered applications.
- Collaborate with AI/ML teams to productionize models, ensuring performance, security, and reliability.
- Implement best practices for security, performance, and scalability across backend systems.
- Build robust observability — monitoring, logging, and alerting — for deployed applications.
- Partner with cross-functional teams (frontend, product management, DevOps, ML engineers) to deliver high-quality features on time.
- Stay on top of emerging technologies and advocate for smart adoption that keeps us ahead of the curve.
Skills, Knowledge and Expertise
Required Skills & Qualifications- 5+ years of professional backend development experience, with at least 3+ years using Python and Node.js.
- Deep understanding of API design (REST, GraphQL, gRPC) and microservices architecture.
- Experience with cloud platforms, preferably Azure/AWS (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and containerization/orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes).
- Solid understanding of databases (SQL and NoSQL), caching strategies, and data modeling.
- Familiarity with the AI/ML lifecycle — from model training to deployment and monitoring.
- Strong background in software engineering best practices (CI/CD, code reviews, automated testing, Git workflows).
- Experience with asynchronous programming and event-driven architectures (e.g., Kafka, RabbitMQ).
- Excellent problem-solving skills with an emphasis on scalability, reliability, and performance optimization.
- Clear communicator and natural mentor — someone who elevates the team and drives technical strategy.
Preferred (Nice-to-Have)- Hands-on experience with AI/ML frameworks (TensorFlow, PyTorch, Hugging Face) or MLOps tools (MLflow, Kubeflow, SageMaker).
- Experience in data engineering — building large-scale data ingestion and processing pipelines.
- Background in startup or high-growth environments, especially in delivering AI-powered products.
Why You’ll Love Working Here
At BSC Analytics, we don’t just ship code — we ship impact. You’ll join a team that values deep technical curiosity, open collaboration, and a strong sense of ownership. We believe in doing work that’s challenging, meaningful, and occasionally a little weird — in the best way.
You’ll get the trust to run with ideas, the support to grow your skills, and the camaraderie of teammates who genuinely love what they do.
