Job description

Build the Future with AspenView Technology Partners

At AspenView, we are passionate about transforming the way organizations approach technology. We specialize in creating high-performing, nearshore IT teams to help North American clients innovate faster and more efficiently.

As we continue to grow, we’re looking for exceptional people to join our team and help drive impactful change across industries.

Why Join AspenView?

At AspenView, we’re more than a nearshore IT partner—we’re a people-first, purpose-driven company that believes great culture drives great outcomes. We’re passionate about connecting talent and technology to deliver measurable value for clients—and meaningful career paths for our people.

Here’s what you can expect:

• Competitive base
• Flexible work model: hybrid, remote, or in-office
• Real growth opportunities and leadership visibility
• Inclusive, respectful culture that blends U.S. innovation with Colombian heart
• A company that listens, invests in you, and celebrates wins together

As Senior Backend Engineer, you'll build the reliability, developer experience, and trust infrastructure that let a small team ship fast without breaking anything. You'll work directly with the Lead Platform Architect: you own implementation, operations, and reliability, and you have a real say in where the architecture goes next.

What you will do:

Reliability & Operations

• Build monitoring, alerting, and observability across GCP (Cloud Run, AlloyDB/Postgres, BigQuery) and Railway
• Set up staging environments and a deploy pipeline with real rollback
• Implement backup and recovery that is actually tested
• Own incident response and turn every incident into lasting hardening

Developer Experience

• Build CI/CD pipelines and migration tooling that keep schema changes safe and predictable
• Build test infrastructure that runs real workflows against real project data
• Make the platform SDK fast and easy to build on, so feature work speeds up as the team grows

Trust & Security Infrastructure

• Implement the authorization model: roles, permissions, and multi-project data isolation
• Build immutable audit logging that holds up under outside scrutiny
• Lay the operational groundwork for SOC 2 compliance

Architecture & Collaboration

• Propose and shape design changes through written architecture decisions
• Ship features against defined acceptance criteria using real project data
• Work closely with the people who use the platform, including occasional jobsite visits

Tools & Technologies

• Platforms & Infrastructure: PostgreSQL, AlloyDB, BigQuery, Cloud Run, Railway, monitoring and observability tooling
• Security & DevSecOps: Role-based authorization, multi-tenant data isolation, immutable audit logging, SOC 2 readiness, CI/CD pipelines, automated testing
• Cloud & IaC: GCP or AWS at production scale, Infrastructure as Code, migration tooling, AI-assisted development workflows

What you bring: Experience

• Experience: Senior-level backend engineering (5+ years) with deep production Postgres expertise (schema design, migrations, performance as data grows), plus GCP or AWS run at real scale where you were responsible for uptime, not just deployments
• Systems Expertise: Hands‑on work with authorization and multi‑tenant systems
• Consulting / Leadership: Able to own operations end to end, influence architecture through clear written proposals, and partner closely with a Lead Architect and end users
• Mindset: Builder at heart, pragmatic, and comfortable with little process and shifting priorities. You treat CI/CD and IaC as habits and use AI‑assisted development in your daily work
• Location: Based in LatAm
• Nice to have: Construction, AEC, or vertical SaaS background, and SOC 2 or other compliance experience
