We are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to join our R&D team in developing the new rising product in the health landscape.

As a Senior Backend Engineer at Lumen, you will have an impact on how we architect, build, scale, and maintain our backend systems. You will provide technical guidance and mentorship to other engineers on the team, help establish and maintain best practices for development, and participate in the development of the companys technological roadmap. Youll solve complex engineering challenges and drive engineering excellence in a dynamic environment and rapidly increasing scale.

Our ideal candidate has a real passion for making a positive change in the world, for technology and customers, has great communication skills, and loves to constantly improve themselves, our working practices, and our code base.

This is a great opportunity to join the core team of a growing, successful startup and work with the most advanced technologies.



Responsibilities

Lead/Participate in system design and architecture discussions.
Implement and own infrastructure and features; be involved and impact the entire product lifecycle (concept, design, test, release, and production support).
Teach, mentor, grow, and provide advice to other domain experts and individual contributors.
Acquire an in-depth understanding of our technical challenges and strive to improve them.
Play a central role in technical, business, and organizational contributions.
Be a vocal advocate for technical excellence and help the team members make sound decisions.
Work with product managers, data scientists, and other team members to understand the desired requirements and provide your feedback to improve the outcome of the feature.

As a Backend Engineer, you build the scalable, resilient engine that powers the platform. Your mission is to design and implement high-performance services that handle massive scale, ensuring data integrity and system reliability for thousands of brands. Working within a product team, you will translate complex business logic into robust architectural solutions, ensuring that our infrastructure can scale as fast as our customers do.

Key Responsibilities

Distributed Systems Design: Design and build microservices and event-driven architectures that are resilient, scalable, and maintainable. You will make critical decisions on synchronous vs. asynchronous communication and data consistency.
Data Mastery: Manage the lifecycle of data across our platform. You will design efficient database schemas (SQL & NoSQL) and optimize query performance to handle high-throughput workloads.
Operational Excellence: Embrace the You Build It, You Run It philosophy. You will own your services in production, implementing observability (logging, tracing, metrics) to detect issues before our customers do.
API Craftsmanship: Build clean, secure, and well-documented APIs (REST/GraphQL) that serve as the contract between our backend services and the frontend experience.

We are looking for Senior Engineers who treat AI as a core part of their workflow - people who experiment, iterate, and know how to get real value out of AI tools. Flexibility, curiosity, and a problem-solving mindset are must-haves. In this role you will have the opportunity to take ownership of the development of groundbreaking, AI-driven products and work on interesting projects inside a smart, fun, and dynamic engineering team.

This position is based out of our Jerusalem or Tel-Aviv offices and reports to the Dev Team Lead.

What you will be responsible for
Write clean, high-quality, high-performance, maintainable code.
Ensure that the projects you work on meet business objectives and coding standards.
Support the deployment and testing of new products and features.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to gather and analyze requirements, translating them into technical specifications.
Design and implement APIs and integrations with third-party services to enhance system functionality.
Optimize application performance through code profiling, monitoring, and refactoring as necessary.
Implement automated testing frameworks to ensure code robustness and reliability.
Participate in code reviews and provide constructive feedback to peers to foster continuous improvement.
Stay updated with emerging technologies, best practices, and industry trends to drive innovation within the team.
Assist in the establishment and enforcement of development standards and coding conventions.

We seek a skilled Senior Infra Backend Engineer to join our R&D office in Tel Aviv, working in a hybrid and flexible model.
Youll collaborate with a top-tier R&D team and take your professional growth to the next level. Our backend infra teams work mainly with Python and Go, but we welcome talented backend engineers from any language background.
