We're Looking for a Backend Engineer Who Builds with AWS in Mind

At VetFamily, we're growing a portfolio of products that empower veterinary clinics and suppliers around the world. Behind every feature we launch lies a robust and evolving cloud infrastructure. We're now looking for a Backend Engineer with strong AWS architecture skills to help us scale, integrate, and enhance the platforms that support veterinary care globally.

If you're a backend developer who thinks in services, APIs, and distributed systems—and you feel at home navigating AWS—this is your chance to make an impact in a modern, cloud-native environment. Whether you’ve worked as a fullstack developer with strong backend leanings or come from a DevOps-heavy background, this role is designed for someone eager to build, operate, and evolve performant backend services and the infrastructure they run on.

🌐 About the Role

VetFamily operates a platform of interconnected products—from transaction engines to customer portals—all running on AWS. As we expand our services and development capacity, we’re looking for a backend engineer who can take a leading role in designing and implementing scalable services, improving cloud architecture, and enabling a unified backend ecosystem.

You’ll collaborate with product and tech teams to bring new ideas to life, and work alongside cloud engineers and developers to harmonize service architecture and AWS operations. You’re not expected to manage infrastructure alone—but your backend work will be deeply informed by AWS best practices, performance goals, and reliability needs.

🔧 What You’ll Do

• Backend Development – Design, develop, and maintain robust backend services using modern tools and frameworks.
• Cloud Architecture – Architect systems for performance, scale, and maintainability using AWS-native services.
• Infrastructure-as-Code – Contribute to the design and evolution of infrastructure using Terraform and AWS CDK.
• CI/CD & Monitoring – Collaborate on pipelines, observability, and automated deployment strategies.
• Data & Integration – Work with APIs, data pipelines, and third-party integrations as part of feature delivery.
• Tech Enablement – Help internal teams adopt backend and AWS best practices through guidance and documentation.
• Product Support – Enable cross-functional product teams by providing scalable, secure backend solutions.

🧠 About You

• Strong backend development experience in modern languages (e.g., Python, Node.js, Go, or similar).
• Deep understanding of AWS services (EC2, ECS/EKS, Lambda, RDS, IAM, S3, CloudWatch, etc.).
• Experience with Infrastructure-as-Code—especially Terraform—and multi-region deployments.
• Solid grasp of service-oriented architectures, API design, and event-driven systems.
• Familiar with cloud-native data technologies like Snowflake or Redshift.
• Proactive, curious, and comfortable owning complex systems.
• Strong debugging skills and a mindset geared toward performance, security, and reliability.
• Communicative and collaborative—you make technical topics accessible across roles.

• End-to-End Ownership – Build systems with real impact and no unnecessary bureaucracy.
• Tech-Forward Culture – Join teams that value clean architecture, clarity, and collaboration.
