About the Role
We're looking for a curious and motivated Junior Backend Engineer to join our team. You'll be building backend services, REST APIs, with some exposure to cloud infrastructure along the way.
Our projects use Python or C#, but since all of our code is written with AI, we are considering candidates with any OOP language, including JavaScript and Java. What matters is how you think about software: object-oriented design, APIs, and data.??
We work in pairs --- juniors are always paired with someone at a similar or slightly higher level, not just for code reviews, but for day-to-day coding, architecture decisions, and problem solving. This is production work: you'll ship backend services that customers rely on, with the safety net of another teammate beside you.
The client is US-based, so the team works US business hours; for engineers in Ukraine, this means your working day ends around midnight Kyiv time. This role can be full-time or part-time, depending on your availability.
What You'll Work On
- Backend Services \& APIs --- build and maintain REST APIs and backend services for client platforms.
- AWS or Azure infrastructure deployment.
- CI/CD using GitHub Actions or Azure DevOps pipelines.
?Tech Stack
-
Backend --- Our projects use Python or C#, depending on the engagement. You do not need to know either one --- all code is written with AI, and you'll learn the project's framework on the job.
-
Cloud --- AWS or Azure, depending on the engagement. Nice-to-have, not required.

Working Hours \& Format
This role can be full-time or part-time, depending on your availability. It's remote, with occasional face-to-face working sessions. Our client operates on US business hours, so the schedule needs to align with US time zones --- for engineers based in Ukraine, your working day will end around midnight Kyiv time.
Requirements
Solid fundamentals in OOP, and a basic understanding of REST APIs.
Exposure to AWS or Azure is a plus, but not required --- you'll pick up what you need on the job. We care more about your curiosity and attitude than your CV.
