Description
ABOUT onX
We’re a team of builders, adventurers, and risk takers using technology to help people confidently explore the outdoors. Driven by our mission to awaken the adventurer inside everyone, we build products that optimize every outdoor experience and inspire confidence to get out and go further.
We’re a high-growth tech company. The pace is fast, the work takes grit, and ambiguity is part of the job. As the world changes around us, we adapt - continuously evolving how we build, prioritize, and deliver.
Our business moves quickly, and there’s real opportunity to shape what we build next. Each of our verticals - Hunt, Offroad, Backcountry, and Fish - is at a different stage of maturity, which means the challenges you encounter and the impact you have will vary depending on where you sit and what the business needs most.
We operate with an experimentation mindset, continually iterating and improving how we solve problems. We expect our people to use the latest tooling, including AI, thoughtfully and responsibly, pairing human judgment with technology to increase quality, speed, and impact.
Our impact comes to life through the products we build, in the stories of our customers, and in our growing commitment to land stewardship and recreational access. WHAT YOU WILL DO
onX is seeking a Backend Engineer who will contribute to meaningful, real-world outcomes that have a lasting impact for customers and the business. In this role, you'll focus on building and scaling the hunt-specific backend services and data layer that power experiences for hunters as part of the Hunt team, supporting onX's goal of delivering a best-in-class Hunt experience from onboarding through the season. You'll take ownership of your work, collaborate closely with partners across the organization, and help move initiatives forward in an environment where priorities evolve, learning is celebrated, and you're encouraged to keep stretching your skills. This role will report to the Engineering Manager of Hunt.
As an onX Backend Engineer, your day to day responsibilities would look like:
(Essential Job Duties)
Design, build, and scale well-tested backend services and data models that power engaging experiences across onX apps.
Own the data layer that captures, stores, and serves data to deliver new features.
Partner with engineers and product managers across teams to integrate data and services cleanly, leveraging and extending existing services and platform patterns.
Contribute to architectural decisions and write thorough unit, integration, and acceptance tests to keep services reliable, performant, and maintainable.
Provide code review and backend coverage across the team's work to keep everyone shipping.
Participate in an on-call rotation to ensure backend services remain highly available and reliable after hours.
Look for opportunities to embed AI as a repeatable co-pilot in daily workflows by integrating experimentation into real work, and continuously refining its use with sound judgment and validation.
