Job description

Backend Engineer (Full-Time, Remote)

Join EssentiallySports – Where Fandom Lives

At EssentiallySports, we go beyond headlines to deliver stories fans truly care about. As a top-10 U.S. sports media platform with 30M+ monthly users and over 1B annual pageviews , we combine audience insights with cultural trends to engage underserved fans worldwide.

We’re a lean, high-energy team fueled by data, experimentation, and a strong culture of ownership.

Our Values

  • Focus on the fan — everything else follows
  • Hire for intent, not just experience
  • Bootstrapped = freedom to serve fans, not investors
  • The internet unlocks niches
  • Bias to action, integrity, strong communication, and responsibility
  • High agency wins

What You’ll Do

  • Own and optimize AWS infrastructure (EC2, S3, RDS, CloudFront, Lambda, Kinesis) for resilience, scalability, and cost efficiency.
  • Engineer the backend (Node.js, Python) that powers our Next.js / Vercel platform—prioritizing speed and reliability.
  • Drive web performance optimization—debug bottlenecks, fine-tune APIs, manage caching / CDN, and deliver consistently fast experiences worldwide.
  • Evolve our WordPress CMS pipelines to ensure content delivery is robust and scalable.
  • Take ownership of uptime, infra budgets, SLAs, and monitoring alerts, working closely with DevOps and product leads.

    • What You Bring

  • Advanced AWS skills with infrastructure-as-code (Terraform / CDK) and proven cost optimization at scale.
  • Experience running high-traffic platforms with real-world debugging and performance tuning.
  • Strong backend expertise : Node.js, Python, modern database systems.
  • A product mindset—balancing speed vs. polish while keeping fan experience top of mind.
  • 4+ years in software development (consumer products preferred).
  • Curiosity and adaptability with Next.js and Vercel (or intent to learn).
  • Collaborative spirit, problem-solving mindset, and ability to thrive in fast-paced, startup-like environments.

    • Why Join Us?

  • Fully remote with flexible working hours
  • Freedom to own problem statements and ship impactful solutions
  • Direct impact from Day 1—release features to millions instantly
  • Cutting-edge stack with automated CI / CD and no bureaucratic blockers
  • Work with leaders from Amazon, Zomato, Booking, Expedia, and more
  • Bi-annual offsites described by the team as “epic”
  • Mentorship, coaching, and the freedom to experiment

    • “Very flexible and open, can ask anything anytime. Real mentorship and coaching. Superb energy in the whole ES team.” — Team member

    Our Tech Stack

  • Frontend : Next.js (React-based), hosted on Vercel
  • Backend : AWS (EC2, S3, RDS, Lambda, Kinesis, CloudFront)
  • CMS : WordPress powering global content pipelines

    • 👉 If you want to build high-scale products, solve exciting infra challenges, and leave a mark on how millions of fans experience sports—this is your shot.
