# Back-end Engineer

EVONA

Backend Engineer — Python Base salary: $120,000–$180,000 plus equity Locations: Denver, CO; Seattle, WA; San Francisco, CA; or Washington, DC Working arrangement: Flexible hybrid schedule, generally two days per week onsite Eligibility: Candidates must be U.S. citizens and have active clearance. Aerospace or satellite experience is not required. If you can build reliable, production-grade software, the space side can be taught. I’m partnering with a fast-growing space technology company that is transforming how satellites are operated through modern, cloud-native software. We’re looking for a Backend Engineer to help build the foundational systems behind a platform used to manage and automate satellite operations. This is a hands-on backend software engineering role focused primarily on Python. You’ll join a small, high-impact engineering team building scalable software used by real customers and supporting live satellite missions. You’ll have broad ownership across the backend while collaborating with dedicated platform, frontend, command-and-control and aerospace-operations teams. What you’ll be doing
• Developing production-grade backend applications and services, primarily in Python
• Designing, building and maintaining scalable APIs
• Building reliable, performant software used in live customer environments
• Working across multiple backend services and projects
• Deploying and troubleshooting applications in Kubernetes-based environments
• Supporting software deployed in AWS and on-premises customer environments
• Collaborating closely with platform engineers while maintaining a clear focus on backend development
• Contributing to software architecture and technical decisions
• Improving the scalability, resilience, maintainability and performance of the platform What we’re looking for
• Strong professional Python backend engineering experience
• Approximately three or more years of backend or full-stack software development experience; exceptional candidates with fewer years may still be considered
• Experience building and supporting production software used by real customers
• Experience designing, developing and troubleshooting APIs
• Experience working with Kubernetes or within a Kubernetes-centric environment
• General cloud and container experience
• Experience building scalable, reliable and performant systems
• Ability to work across different backend services rather than one narrowly defined component
• Strong problem-solving skills, initiative and the ability to work without significant hand-holding
• High standards for software quality, resilience and maintainability
• Comfort working within a smaller, fast-moving engineering organization Nice to have
• Experience within a SaaS, growth-stage or Series A–C technology company
• Experience with distributed systems or microservices
• Experience using open-source technologies
• Familiarity with software deployed in both cloud and on-premises environments
• TypeScript, JavaScript or limited frontend experience
• Experience with C++, Java, Rust or another lower-level language This is an opportunity to bring modern backend engineering practices into the space industry while working on software that directly supports real-world satellite operations. #BackendEngineer #PythonDeveloper #AWSJobs #SoftwareEngineering #SpaceTech #CloudEngineering #GraphQL #Kubernetes #Terraform #Hiring
