** See yourself at Dataminr
** Join our product engineering team as a Senior Backend Software Engineer to architect and scale the engine behind our real-time event detection platform. You’ll leverage Node.js, Postgre

SQL, and AWS to build high-throughput, event-driven systems that process billions of data points. This is a critical role focused on designing resilient distributed systems and robust APIs that power both our internal AI pipelines and external consumer applications. We seek seasoned backend talent to work in a fully remote position from anywhere in the UK or Ireland.
**** AI Innovation at Dataminr
**** Working at Dataminr you’ll have the opportunity to tackle the most exciting trends in AI on a daily basis to power a revolutionary product that uncovers critical events around the world as they unfold.: our AI technology, ReGenAI, is a new form of generative AI that automatically regenerates real-time Live Event Briefs as events unfold. Learn more .**:
** we recently launched our Agentic AI capability, what we’re calling our Intel Agents, that autonomously generates critical context for our clients on real-time events, threats, and risks allowing them to see the clearest, most accurate view of what’s happening on the ground. Learn more
** Multimodal AI:
** our platform detects events from many different types of data (images, video, sensor data, audio, and text in over 150 languages). Learn more .
**** The opportunity
***** Architect Distributed Systems:
Design and implement scalable backend services using Node.js and Event-Driven Architecture (SQS/SNS, Kinesis, or Kafka) to handle massive data spikes.
* Data Modeling & Optimization:
Own the schema design and performance tuning of Postgre

SQL databases, ensuring data integrity and high availability for complex relational datasets.
* Cloud

Infrastructure: Deploy and manage production workloads on AWS, utilizing Lambda, ECS, and serverless patterns to drive efficiency and reliability.
* Technical Leadership:
Lead the technical design of high-impact features, performing deep-dive code reviews and mentoring mid-level engineers on backend best practices.
* Operational Excellence:
Drive the "you build it, you run it" culture by improving observability (logging, metrics, tracing) and reducing technical debt through pragmatic refactoring.

* Advanced experience with databases.

E.g. Postgres (complex joins, indexing strategies, query optimization, and migrations).
* Proven track record of building and scaling applications on AWS (compute, messaging, and storage services).
* Hands-on experience designing asynchronous systems, message queues, and event streams to decouple services and increase system resilience.
* Strong experience building and maintaining production-grade RESTful APIs and/or Graph

QL services.
* A disciplined approach to testing (unit, integration, and load testing) and a focus on writing clean, maintainable, and secure code.
