Albertine builds white-label digital concierge experiences for luxury brands and their members. Our backend is a multi-tenant TypeScript API platform that powers the member-facing concierge apps, LMT — the internal platform agents use to manage members and operations — plus payments, recommendations, messaging, and a growing set of third-party integrations.The roleWe're hiring an engineer with a backend focus to build the platform our member and agent experiences run on. You'll own features end-to-end: shaping the API contract with the people who will consume it, implementing the service and data layer, wiring up integrations, and operating what you ship. When a feature needs a UI, you ship that slice too, in the existing React apps, following an architecture other people own. You're not here to paint tickets: you're here to improve the product.You'll work close to the domain, not behind it. Concierge operations, memberships, bookings, billing, and partner integrations are real business logic with real edge cases, and you'll be expected to push back on requirements, propose better models, and think about what happens at 10x the volume. Luxury detail matters here, including in the parts members never see: an integration that fails silently or a job that quietly falls behind is a broken experience.We work AI-native. Coding agents are part of how we build, prototype, and refactor. You still own taste, architecture, and review. Speed without judgment isn't the bar.What will you do?Ship TypeScript backend work across our Hono API: vertical feature slices with OpenAPI-first contracts, generated types, and integration testsDesign and evolve API contracts consumed by web, iOS, Android, and partner clients — including versioning and backwards compatibility for shipped mobile appsBuild platform capabilities that scale with tenants, not only with traffic: isolation, per-tenant configuration, authorization, pagination, and query performance that still hold at 10x the volumeModel and query data in Postgres as our primary datastore,



keeping transactions and consistency boundaries sound as we migrate remaining domains off a legacy document storeDesign and operate background jobs and event-driven workflows: scheduling, retries, backpressure, and keeping asynchronous work correct and observableBuild and own integrations with payment providers, identity providers, messaging, mapping, and partner systems, including the unglamorous parts: retries, idempotency, reconciliation, and failure modesOwn scalability and reliability of what you ship: pagination, query performance, observability, and sensible SLOsShip the frontend slice of a feature you own when that is what delivery needs, in the existing React and TypeScript apps, so the work does not wait on a handoff. Frontend architecture stays with the people who own it. You follow the existing patterns, design system, and review bar.Use coding agents as a default accelerator with clear specs, sharp review, and solid testsCommunicate clearly for a remote team: design notes, PR descriptions, async updatesWhat are we looking for?Must have:5+ years building and operating production backend services, ideally with TypeScript/NodeStrong product instincts: you can work from incomplete specs, push back on requirements, and own outcomes — not just tasksSolid API design judgment: REST contracts, versioning, pagination, error semantics, and designing for clients you don't controlReal relational database depth: schema design, migrations, transactions, indexing, and diagnosing slow queriesEvent-driven architecture and job/workflow orchestration: queues, scheduled and background work, retries, idempotency, and reasoning about eventual consistencyExperience with integrations and distributed failure:
