Sde-3 Backend

**Crimson Enago flagship products**

At Crimson Enago we are laser-focused on building AI-powered tools and services that significantly boost the productivity of researchers and professionals. Every researcher or professional goes through the stages of knowledge discovery, knowledge acquisition, knowledge creation, and knowledge dissemination. However, each stage is cognitively heavy and is tightly coupled. It is in this direction that we have our flagship products Trinka and RAx that focus on making all these four stages easy and fast.

**About the team**

We are a bunch of passionate researchers, engineers, and designers who came together to build a product that can revolutionize the way any research-intensive projects are done. Reducing cognitive load and helping people to convert information into knowledge, is at the core of our mission. Our engineering team is building a scalable platform that deals with tons of data, AI processing over the data, and interactions of users from across the globe. We believe research plays a key role in making the world a better place, and we want to make it easy to approach and fun to do

**Role overview**

As an SDE-3 Backend, you will **actively lead, setting top-class engineering examples, a team of young talented web developers**, and take major responsibility for end-to-end project development and delivery along with the Engineering Manager (EM), Principal Engineer (PE), other SDE-3 leads, and Technical Project Manager (TPM). You will also assist them with hiring and training the team. In essence, your usual day will be primarily coding 100% of the time.

- You show remarkable foresight in designing optimized scalable solutions.
- You enjoy breaking down complex problems into small tasks and PRs to deliver value safely and incrementally.
- You will be **actively reviewing approaches created by the tech team** and helping them to find the optimal solutions to the problems.
- You take pride in estimating project efforts with reasonable accuracy and ensure healthy communication up to and down the chain of command.
- You will work with the Solution Architect, Engineering Manager, TPM, and other senior developers to **optimize, update, and maintain cloud infrastructure and associated costs** (AWS).
- 9. You are very well acquainted with best practices around project deployment and educate the team about the same.
- 10. You will be helping the TPM in the **hiring process** by making sure that we have a great tech team that has: (a) a high level of curiosity, (b) resourcefulness, (c) solid expertise level, (d) high attention-to-details, (e) superb commitment and reliability, and (f) obsession for amazing user experience.

**Experience**

- You have strong experience working with **AWS technologies** like Lambda functions, SQS, SNS, RDS, DynamoDB, etc.
- You have a sound understanding of **HTML5, CSS3, CSS processors, and CSS frameworks.**:

- You know when to write highly optimized vs highly maintainable code.
- You have very strong experience in the best practices around developer tooling and workflows.
- You consider **testing, monitoring, and observability first-order priorities**. _Until your code runs in production and returns the results and metrics you expect, you know your work isn't complete_.
- You have **worked on high-impact projects**, and you see software engineering as a team sport and like collaborating with fellow engineers, product managers, and others to deliver customer value. You are energized by working in a highly collaborative environment at a user experience-obsessed startup.
