We’re looking for a backend engineer passionate about building robust and scalable systems, excited about working with modern cloud technologies and distributed systems to power our Document Engine and SaaS products.
You find satisfaction in architecting high-performance solutions, optimising system reliability, caring for the cloud infrastructure our products run on, and creating efficient backend services that handle complex document processing workflows at scale. Execute on the design and implementation of high-performance Elixir/Phoenix-based systems such as Nutrient's Document Engine and Web Services API
Design and build declarative infrastructure, robust, scalable and easy to observe and maintain (we are currently using Terraform, Terramate and FluxCD on Kubernetes, with Helm charts powering both our managed cloud and customer self-hosted deployments)
Operate and evolve our managed cloud platform:



cluster lifecycle and upgrades, GitOps workflows, observability, and database operations, keeping it reliable, secure, and costefficient
Collaborate closely with a small, remote-first engineering team to ship features, debug hard problems, and continuously improve reliability
Build systems and workflows that use AI to speed up our work, from agent-driven investigation of performance issues to automating repetitive engineering tasks
Experience in backend services and distributed systems
A track record running production workloads on Kubernetes and public cloud (we use AWS), ideally with infrastructure-as-code and GitOps practices
Strong coding skills: Elixir experience isn't required, we'll help you learn
Owners: You take responsibility for solutions and outcomes, always looking for ways to improve what’s within your control.
You’ll help run and evolve the managed cloud behind Document Engine (cluster lifecycle, GitOps, and observability), not just ship services on top of it.
Elixir and Phoenix for the product, Kubernetes with Terraform, Helm, and FluxCD for the infrastructure it runs on.
Fully remote and async-first: Minimal meetings, strong writing culture, and the independence to manage your own work.
Nutrient's platform is trusted by 15%+ of the Integral 500 across 80+ countries.
