We have offices in San Francisco, New York, London, Paris, Berlin, Sydney, Mexico City, and remote team members across the US and Europe. We hope that you'll be interested in joining us!<h2 class="jobSectionHeader">
The role</h2>
The Cloud Infrastructure team at Watershed owns foundational capabilities that our product is built upon, as well as many of the tools our engineering teams use to orchestrate workloads and deploy, test, scale, and observe their code in production. We support an application with a quickly growing codebase and build systems that are used by every single engineer at the company. We are looking for team members who love building the enabling systems that empower other engineers to deliver a high quality end-user experience.
We&rsquo;re looking for folks with experience managing cloud infrastructure, working through various stages of scale, and helping Engineering be more effective and productive. Specific experience with Google Cloud Platform is desirable, but not strictly required.
Some traits that are important to our company culture: customer-obsessed, hard-working, inclusive, and optimistic.
You might be a good fit if:<ul><li>
You have 3+ years of engineering experience</li><li>
You&rsquo;ve worked on Infrastructure or Platform teams, or on significant projects involving infrastructure components (e.g. multi-region architecture, CI/CD, infrastructure as code, kubernetes, release management, observability, cloud security)</li><li>

Certain jobs are open to being remote and will be specifically noted on the jobs page and in the job description if so.
What&rsquo;s the interview process like?
It starts the same for every candidate: getting to know the team members through 1 to 2 conversations about Watershed, your experience, and your interests. Next steps can vary by role, but usual next steps are a skill or experience interview (e.g. a coding interview for an engineer, a portfolio review for a designer, deeper experience call for other roles) which leads to a virtual or in person interview panel. We prioritize transparency and lack of surprise throughout the process.
What if I need accommodations for my interview?

Software Engineer, Payments

Tenkara

<div>
 
 At Tenkara, we're building an operating system for process manufacturers, starting with AI agents that run procurement, logistics, and demand planning.
 
 
 
 
 
 American manufacturing has never had a greater opportunity to reclaim global competitiveness. But operations teams are underwater, drowning in manual coordination work. Suppliers managed over email. Freight tracked through calls. Compliance scattered across spreadsheets. Mid-market manufacturers can't scale operations without scaling headcount proportionally.
 
 
 
 
 
 Tenkara deploys AI agents that execute these workflows autonomously, bringing cutting-edge AI into the economy's most critical sectors. Our agents enable businesses to make smarter decisions and faster transactions.&nbsp;
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Culture
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Build the absolute best product, bar nothing. Move fast and learn by shipping. Meritocracy where ideas win on merit. Extreme ownership. Steep trajectory for those who prove themselves. What we're building matters: helping American manufacturers compete globally.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 We're backed by some of the very best supply chain and enterprise software investors. We're live with manufacturers processing real transactions right now. Founded by a serial entrepreneur who built and ran manufacturing plants from the ground up.&nbsp;
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 About the Role
 
 
 
 
 
 
 You'll build the infrastructure for autonomous manufacturing operations. AI agents coordinating complex workflows in parallel. Transaction processing that can't fail when real money is moving. Data pipelines that extract intelligence from unstructured supplier documents and emails. Integrations to ERPs and freight systems where APIs barely work or don't exist. You'll stitch together the software layer for how physical goods actually move.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 What You&rsquo;ll Take On
 
 
 
 
 
 <ul>
 <li>
 Design and scale backend services: Architect Next.js API routes, background jobs, and serverless functions that handle high-throughput order processing.
 </li>
 <li>
 Build AI-powered agents: Develop and productionize LLM-based agents AI/ML infrastructure and RAG patterns for intelligent quote analysis and supplier recommendations.
 </li>
 <li>
 Own the data layer: Design Supabase/PostgreSQL schemas, migrations, and complex queries for materials, quotes, orders, and supplier relationships.
 </li>
 <li>
 Architect event-driven systems: Build reliable pipelines for order state management, notification triggers, and cross-system synchronization.
 </li>
 <li>
 Implement caching and rate limiting: Design strategies for external API calls to ensure reliability at scale.
 </li>
 <li>
 Drive platform reliability: Establish monitoring, alerting, and observability patterns; own incident response for backend systems.
 </li>
 </ul>
 
 
 
 
 
 What You Have
 
 
 
 
 
 <ul>
 <li>
 Very deep software engineering experience with a strong focus on backend/infrastructure systems.
 </li>
 <li>
 TypeScript mastery: Extensive experience building type-safe Node.js services and API layers.
 </li>
 <li>
 Python proficiency: Ability to build and integrate Python services for data processing and ML pipelines.
 </li>
 <li>
 Database expertise: Deep PostgreSQL knowledge including schema design, query optimization, and migration strategies.
 </li>
 <li>
 AI/ML engineering experience: Production experience with LLMs, embeddings, vector databases, and RAG architectures.
 </li>
 <li>
 Systems thinking: Experience designing for reliability, scalability, and graceful degradation.
 </li>
 <li>
 Comfortable with DevOps fundamentals: CI/CD, containerization, cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred).
 </li>
 <li>
 API design skills: Strong understanding of RESTful patterns, authentication flows, and third-party integrations.
 </li>
 <li>
 Supply chain or logistics domain experience is a plus.
 </li>
 </ul>
 
 
 
 
 
 What We Offer
 
 
 
 
 
 
 $160,000-$200,000 annually + meaningful equity (you are of the first 5 technical hires).
 
 
 
 
 
 Health, dental, vision following probationary period. Unlimited PTO.
 
 
 
 
 
 Hard, important problems. Foundational ownership. Direct collaboration with experienced, well-backed founders. Meaningful equity in a company with strong tailwinds.
