We move fast, think boldly, and empower you to do the best work of your life. You’ll be surrounded by teammates who care deeply, challenge each other, and celebrate wins. With tools that amplify your impact and a culture that backs your ambition, you won’t just contribute. You’ll make things happen-fast.\nAbout the Team:\nWe're a small, fast-moving team building the recruiting infrastructure that powers how companies find and hire people. Our stack is Python + FastAPI on the backend with React frontends. The code you write goes directly into the hands of recruiters - real users, real impact, no layers of abstraction between you and the outcome.\nWe're building a traditional application to help recruiters source candidates, and layering agentic AI capabilities on top of that foundation. It's an early, high-ownership environment where your decisions shape the product.\nThe Role:\nWe're hiring one Senior Backend Engineer to own and drive meaningful initiatives end-to-end. This isn't a ticket-taker role. You'll scope work, make the calls, navigate tradeoffs, gather feedback, ship to production, and maintain what you build - collaborating with a small team throughout.\nWhat You'll Do:\nEnd-to-end ownership. You can drive a medium-sized initiative from requirements to production with minimal hand-holding. You unblock yourself, communicate tradeoffs clearly, gather feedback on your plans, and ship. You take long-term responsibility for what you build.\nAgentic coding fluency. You use AI coding tools - Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or equivalent - every single day. You have real opinions about what works and what doesn't. This is how our team operates, and we expect you to operate the same way.\nWhat You Bring:\n4-8 years of backend engineering experience. What you've shipped matters more than your title or years on paper.\nGeneralist application engineer - primarily backend, but comfortable jumping to the frontend or data layer when needed. You've shipped major projects used by paying customers.\nBackend technologies - strong engineers learn fast; proficiency in any backend stack is the baseline. Experience with Python, FastAPI, or Node is a plus.\nProduct sense - you've worked on user-facing surfaces and have genuine opinions about them.\nStrong ownership, independence, curiosity, and a collaborative mindset.\nBackground - you've likely worked at companies like Indeed, Atlassian, Amazon, Google, Apple, or Meta, and you're ready to trade some of that comp ceiling for real ownership and impact.\nBonus points:\nStartup experience where you owned a domain, paired with big-company engineering rigor.\nBackground in HR tech or the recruiting domain.\nActual compensation offered will be based on factors such as the candidate’s work location, qualifications, skills, experience and/or training. Your recruiter can share more information about the specific salary range for your desired work location during the hiring process. We want our employees and their families to thrive.\nIn addition to comprehensive benefits we offer holistic mind, body and lifestyle programs designed for overall well-being. Learn more about ZoomInfo benefits here.\nBelow is the US base salary for this position. Additional compensation such as Bonus, Commission, Equity and other benefits may also apply.\n$140,000—$220,000 USD\nAbout us: \nZoomInfo (NASDAQ: GTM) is the Go-To-Market Intelligence Platform that empowers businesses to grow faster with AI-ready insights, trusted data, and advanced automation.
