Senior Backend Software Engineer

Description

Tech is at the center of everything we do at Fiverr and we're looking for people who are builders at their core. From developers to visionaries and everything in between, we want minds who aren't just interested in putting the pieces together but who can find new ways to innovate. Solid communication, creative problem solving and business understanding are all prerequisites. So, if you're tech savvy, inquisitive, and ready to take the road less traveled, the Fiverr Technology team might be right for you.

What am I going to do?

• You develop it all! Including products and features.
• You’ll be building and developing modules, data pipelines, and services.
• You own it - from design to production.

Requirements

• Deep understanding of Computer Science principles and strong analytical skills
• Hands-on experience and established working practices with AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or similar)
• Experience in designing and building AI-powered product features, from prompt design to scalable, production-ready integrations is a strong plus
• Readiness to contribute beyond your core discipline. Backend is your depth, and you'll be expected to contribute to frontend and other adjacent work as features require
• Fluent in English and Ukrainian
• BSc. in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field

At Fiverr, we’re not about checklists. If you don’t meet 100% of the requirements for this role but still feel passionate about the position and think it’ll make your life more fulfilling, we want to hear from you.
