Your role in the team

We're building a new enablement team, which will be responsible for our Shopware Pulse product area, encompassing everything related to managing subscriptions, payments, and overages for our Shopware Services.
As a Backend Engineer, you'll own critical service-to-service infrastructure, data pipelines, and APIs that power both internal operations and merchant-facing capabilities.
Design, build, and evolve Go-based gRPC services, including OAuth flows, integrations, and caching strategies.
Build and operate the service backends in TypeScript/Node.js (e.g., Hono), including internal and merchant APIs, background workers, and scheduled jobs.
Shape contract-first APIs (Protobuf/OpenAPI), versioning strategies, and safe rollouts across multiple consumer services.
Own data reliability and consistency across Redis caches, MySQL persistence, and asynchronous job queues (SQS).
Implement security and multi-tenant access patterns (M2M auth, signed query params, internal auth).
Drive observability and resilience (structured logging, metrics, tracing, retries, and backpressure).
Collaborate with platform/infra to optimize AWS-based deployments (ECS, Terraform, CI/CD, secrets management).
