SENIOR SOFTWARE ENGINEER - MESSAGING & AGENTIC APIS

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer, Full Stack – Messaging & Agentic APIs to join our Messaging team and help shape the next generation of CreatorIQ's creator communication platform.

This is a full-stack role with a strong backend focus, where you'll design, build, and scale messaging capabilities that power creator communications across our platform. You'll work on both our existing infrastructure and new cloud-native services, helping modernize CreatorIQ's messaging architecture while building APIs that support web applications, external integrations, and next-generation AI agent workflows.

Our current messaging platform is part of a large PHP-based monolithic application. As we continue migrating functionality into independently deployable microservices built with Node.js and TypeScript, you'll play a key role in both maintaining the existing PHP codebase and designing the future-state architecture. This requires someone who can confidently troubleshoot legacy systems while building scalable, modern backend services.

In this role, you'll work on features such as business inbox integrations, custom sender identities, messaging automation, campaign-specific workflows, reliable message delivery at scale, and agent-ready APIs. While the primary focus is backend engineering, you'll also contribute to React and TypeScript front-end development when needed, collaborating closely with Product, Design, and Engineering teams to deliver high-quality end-to-end solutions.

In this role, you’ll get to:

- Design, develop, and operate scalable backend services supporting CreatorIQ’s email and messaging capabilities.

- Understand and improve existing messaging functionality within our PHP monolith while helping migrate it into Node.js and TypeScript microservices.

- Analyze legacy code, dependencies, and data flows to define service boundaries, APIs, data ownership, and safe migration strategies.

- Design agent-ready APIs and capabilities that are discoverable, well-documented, predictable, and safe for use by AI agents and external integrations.

- Build secure integrations with Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, and other external communication providers.

- Develop capabilities for customer-managed inboxes, domains, sender identities, and campaign-specific messaging automation.

- Design APIs, background jobs, queues, and event-driven workflows with reliable handling of retries, rate limits, idempotency, and provider failures.

- Improve email authentication, deliverability, bounce and complaint processing, suppression management, and sender reputation.

- Contribute to React and TypeScript user interfaces for messaging configuration, automation, and monitoring.

- Improve automated testing, observability, performance, and reliability across legacy and new services.

- Collaborate with Product, Design, QA, DevOps, Architects, and other engineering teams to deliver high-quality solutions.

- Review code, mentor other engineers, and use AI-assisted development tools to improve engineering efficiency and quality.

Who you are and what you’ll need for this position:

- 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, including ownership of complex production systems from design through deployment.

- Strong backend development skills with Node.js and TypeScript, complemented by the ability to build customer-facing applications using React and TypeScript.

- Working knowledge of PHP, with the ability to understand, troubleshoot, and safely enhance an existing legacy codebase while contributing to its modernization.

- Proven success modernizing legacy applications and incrementally decomposing monolithic architectures into microservices and serverless services.

- Expertise in designing and building REST and/or GraphQL APIs, third-party integrations, and asynchronous processing workflows.

- Ability to design APIs for machine-to-machine communication, AI agents, or automated workflows with well-defined contracts, structured schemas, predictable behavior, and robust error handling.

- Strong understanding of relational databases, data modeling, transactions, query optimization, and scalable backend architecture.

- Hands-on experience implementing secure integrations using OAuth 2.0, external identity providers, token management, rate limiting, retries, and resilient failure handling.

- Proficiency with AWS or another major cloud platform, including event-driven architectures using technologies such as Kafka, Amazon SQS, SNS, or EventBridge.

- Familiarity with messaging, email, notification, or communication platforms, including business inboxes, messaging automation, and campaign workflows.

- Knowledge of messaging and email technologies such as Google…
