Senior Backend Software Engineer | Java/Kotlin | EMEA/LATAM
Senior • Remote
8,000 - 11,500 USD
Warsaw, Poland
About the role
We’re looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to join our early team and help build our product from zero to one.
You’ll work on a product that helps companies navigate complex government data, from contracts and grants to market signals and turn it into actionable insights using AI. On the backend side, this means working on data ingestion, processing, and the infrastructure that powers search and AI-driven workflows at scale.
You’ll collaborate closely with a small, senior team and have real ownership, from shaping solutions to shipping them to production and improving them over time.
You might be a fit if you:
Must have:
6+ years of experience as a Backend Engineer, preferably in the JVM ecosystem (we use Kotlin on the backend)
Experience working in product companies (B2B SaaS preferred) with direct impact on shipped features
Experience working in small companies or startups would be a strong advantage
Experience designing and owning backend systems in production (from initial design to deployment and ongoing improvements)
Strong understanding of system design, including scalability, failure handling, and trade-offs
Experience building asynchronous or distributed systems (e.g. messaging, queues, event-driven systems)
Ability to make and justify technical decisions, not just implement given solutions
Fluency in written and spoken English
Nice to have:
Experience with large-scale data processing, scraping, or data pipelines
Experience working with LLMs / AI-related systems
Experience with GCP or similar cloud environments
How We Work
Build Bridges to Help Customers Win - We pride ourselves on being obsessively customer-centric.
Shooting Star Speed - We move with extreme speed. We value momentum, decisiveness, and the ability to accelerate when it matters.
Fun Is a Feature - Fun is a Feature means we intentionally design Starbridge to be an energizing place to do hard work. Joy, humor, and camaraderie make great teams faster, sharper, and more resilient.
In the Arena - We believe the best ideas come from living close to the work, feeling the friction, hearing the nuance, and experiencing the details firsthand.
Benefits include:
Competitive salary + early-stage equity
Unlimited PTO
-
Regular off-sites (NYC + global locations)
Interview Process
We move fast — really fast. Getting back to someone today beats tomorrow, and our interview process reflects that mindset. Please keep us posted on your timeline so we can move quickly and speed things up where needed.
After submitting your application, the team reviews your CV and statement of exceptional work. If your application passes this stage, you will be invited to a 30-minute interview during which a member of our team will make sure you're a good fit for the role. You will have the opportunity ask questions and learn more about the role as well.
We'll then send you a programming challenge that consists of two parts: LeetCode and SQL. Beyond that step, you will enter the main process, which consists of three interviews:
System design exercise hands-on.
Live coding in Java/Kotlin.
Product thinking and past work.
All interviews will be conducted via Google Meet.
Eligibility to Work in Europe or LATAM: Candidates must hold valid authorization to work in the country where they will be based. At this time, we are unable to offer visa sponsorship or assist with work permit applications.

We want someone who is strong technically, communicates clearly, and has the judgment to make systems simpler, safer, and easier to evolve. Expect real ownership from system design through production — especially around multi-tenancy, access control, and regulated data. You solve ambiguous problems by shaping the right architectural approach, then ship, iterate, and keep it healthy in production. We build AI-native. Our agents handle claim logic; you own the system underneath — secure by design, multi-tenant, and compliant. Engineers use Codex, Claude Code, and agents they build themselves. We invest in harness engineering through skills, CLIs, logs, traces, and orchestration.

Location — Remote. International team; main office in Berlin. Expect async-first collaboration across time zones and occasional travel for onsites. Why this role You will own the application trust model behind our AI-native claims platform. While our agents decide what happens next on a claim, you make sure the system underneath is secure, multi-tenant, and compliant by design. You build the core services, the data model, and the partner-facing APIs that let insurers, property managers, and restoration companies work with claims in real time. High autonomy, small senior team — backend decisions directly shape how we handle regulated data. What you will own Design and ship backend services, APIs, data flows, and background processing for the claims platform Own the canonical data model for claims, stakeholders, policies, and documents Implement multi-tenancy and access control so every customer, partner, and user sees only what they should Build secure, stable integrations to CRM/core systems and external partner APIs Ensure GDPR-compliant data handling, isolation, and auditability across the stack Turn vague requirements into concrete technical plans, trade-offs, and execution Own services after launch: reliability, observability, performance, and incident follow-through Instrument what you ship and use production signal to iterate — not just to keep the lights on Design and maintain developer tooling, automated tests, and CI/CD pipelines Work closely with AI, frontend, product, and ops to deliver end-to-end outcomes Improve engineering leverage with AI tooling and automation, not AI as a gimmick Raise the quality bar through code review, design review, and pragmatic technical leadership What strong performance looks like You reliably move important backend work forward without waiting to be tightly managed Your systems are easier to operate and easier to change because of your design decisions You make smart trade-offs to unblock shipping — and you stand by those decisions Security and tenancy are baked into how you design, not bolted on later You keep raising the bar on engineering excellence for yourself and everyone else What we are looking for Strong senior-level backend (or full-stack with deep backend ownership) experience in production systems — typically 3+ years with real product ownership Strong Python and/or TypeScript skills; ability to design clean, maintainable backend code Experience building or operating multi-tenant SaaS Experience with authentication, authorization, and permissions models Good distributed systems judgment: concurrency, failure handling, data consistency, async work, and service boundaries Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure) Comfort with database schema design and performance tuning for real-time / high-throughput scenarios A security-conscious approach: enterprise-grade requirements, careful handling of sensitive data, and clear thinking about the security implications of systems and AI workflows You design clean, stable APIs and know how to keep them backwards-compatible You are used to CI/CD, automated testing, and shipping iteratively Ability to go from problem statement to design to production rollout with real ownership Clear written and verbal communication in English — you explain systems, trade-offs, and incidents without hiding behind jargon Comfortable working remote in an international team: strong written communication, async habits, and proactive ownership without constant oversight AI-native working style: you already use AI tools in your daily workflow, and you want to improve how the team builds — better tooling, workflows, and engineering leverage
