Senior Backend Engineer - Team Decide

About The Role

Banks and fintechs use Taktile to automate critical decisions - like credit and risk - in real time. We're a startup in the automated decisioning space - and the backend is where the hard problems live.

We're looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to join our engineering team. In Team Decide you'll focus on designing the distributed execution engine that runs customer workflows. You'll own critical systems end-to-end on a small team where your decisions shape the product.

What You'll Do

• Build and operate backend services in Python on AWS — Lambda functions, DynamoDB, Aurora, and event-driven pipelines that handle real production traffic. You'll leverage agentic AI tools as part of your daily workflow.
• Tackle hard backend problems — latency, reliability, and scale are everyday concerns.
• Own your systems end-to-end: from architecture and implementation to deployment, monitoring, and incident response.
