Skills
We are seeking a System Development Engineer to join our team developing a platform for third-party SaaS deployment and lifecycle management at enterprise scale.
We enable Amazonions to securely integrate, manage and govern a wide range of third-party SaaS applications through a centralized, no-code control plane. We power large-scale operations across user lifecycle management, access control, usage tracking, and compliance.
You will work on systems that handle high volumes of enterprise workflows, enabling automated provisioning, access management, license optimization and auditability. The platform is designed with a strong focus on security, scalability, and operational efficiency.
In addition to backend systems, this role also involves contributing to UX/UI development, requiring familiarity with modern frontend technologies and an eye for building intuitive user experiences.
This is a high-impact role where you will build distributed systems, drive automation, and shape the future of enterprise SaaS management.
Key job responsibilities
* Design and build scalable, fault-tolerant storage, indexing, and query systems for configuration, access management, and usage tracking
* Develop automation systems to enable proactive governance of third-party SaaS applications, including lifecycle management and license optimization
* Build and enhance self-service capabilities that allow teams to configure workflows and integrations with minimal engineering dependency
* Contribute to the development of frontend UI, including implementing new features, improving usability, and supporting integration workflows
* Own production systems end-to-end, including participating in on-call rotations and driving root cause analysis for incidents
* Mentor engineers and contribute to hiring and technical best practices within the team
A day in the life
In this role, you will collaborate with engineers, product teams, and stakeholders to design and build scalable systems that power enterprise SaaS lifecycle management.
A typical day may include designing distributed backend systems, developing automation to eliminate manual processes, and improving system reliability. You may also work on enhancing the platform’s user interface—adding new features, refining workflows, and improving the overall user experience for teams managing SaaS integrations.
You will balance hands-on coding across both backend and frontend components, along with system design and operational ownership.
About the team
We are a high-impact engineering team focused on building scalable and reliable systems that simplify SaaS management at enterprise scale.
Our team values ownership, technical excellence, and continuous improvement. We focus on building automation-first solutions that reduce operational overhead and enable internal teams to move faster.
You will have the opportunity to work on complex distributed systems as well as user-facing platforms, influence architectural decisions, and contribute to a culture that emphasizes learning, mentorship, and delivering meaningful impact.
- Knowledge of at least one programming language such as Java, C#, JavaScript, Python, Ruby or Perl
- Experience designing and building large-scale systems in a multi-tiered, distributed environment (Service Oriented Architecture)
- Experience troubleshooting and debugging technical systems, or experience in technical support
- - Experience with version control systems and CI/CD pipeline implementation
- - * 3+ years of experience in software development, systems engineering, or a related role
- * Understanding of UI/UX principles and experience working on user-facing systems or management consoles
- * Experience with cloud platforms such as AWS
- * Experience building infrastructure automation using tools like Terraform, CloudFormation, or similar
- * Familiarity with monitoring and observability tools (metrics, logging, tracing)
- * Experience with containerization and orchestration technologies (Docker, Kubernetes)
- * Experience working in high-scale, customer-facing production environments
- * Ability to influence system design and drive best practices across teams
