PDP also builds AI-powered data products, including an agentic reporting experience that enables customers to interact with their financial data in dynamic, intelligent ways. Your work ensures these systems are fast, reliable, and built to scale.

Drive schema and access-pattern improvements to resolve systemic performance bottlenecks. Evaluate existing architectures to proactively identify scaling risks and long-term reliability gaps. Contribute to and improve backend systems primarily in the JVM ecosystem (Kotlin/Java).

Raise the technical bar through thoughtful design reviews and transparent communication of tradeoffs. 7+ years of backend engineering experience building and operating production systems at scale. ~ Experience building platforms or infrastructure used by real customers. ~ Deep hands-on experience with relational databases (Postgres or Aurora strongly preferred) ~ Strong expertise in query plan design and analysis, indexing strategies, and real-world database optimization.

Bonus: Experience with multi-tenant or data-heavy platforms. The expected salary range for this role is $192,000 - $240,000 + equity.
