About Rutter

Rutter is building a universal API for e-commerce platforms.

Similar to the financial market before Plaid, the e-commerce market is split across hundreds of platforms, such as Shopify, Squarespace, Amazon, and others. Each of these platforms has its own app store or its equivalent, and the enterprising e-commerce developer must spend thousands of hours building integrations in order to access the entire e-commerce market.

Rutter is building a universal API for e-commerce platforms, accounting systems and payment processors.

Similar to the financial market before Plaid, the world of business financial data is split across hundreds of platforms like e-commerce storefronts, marketplaces, accounting systems and payment processors, such as Shopify, Amazon, Quickbooks, Netsuite, Stripe and others.

Each of these platforms has its own app store or its equivalent, and the enterprising developer must spend thousands of hours building integrations in order to access the entire market.

Rutter is an integration layer for any company building integrations into commerce or accounting platforms. You can learn more about our universal API here: https://www.rutter.com/

The Role

We’re looking for a talented Backend (Fullstack) Engineer from Brazil to join our Integrations Engineering team. In this role, you’ll design, build, and maintain integrations with key business platforms, enabling Rutter to better serve our global customer base. You’ll collaborate closely with our US-based and Brazil-based teams, primarily located in Eastern Standard Time and Brasilia Standard Time, to drive impactful solutions.

You will:

  • Develop and maintain integrations with commerce, accounting, and advertising platforms like Shopify, QuickBooks Online, and Meta.
  • Build robust systems for alerting, testing, and tooling to streamline the maintenance of external dependencies.
  • Continuously improve the core systems that power our integrations, helping Rutter become the leading universal API.

You have:

  • 3+ years of experience in software engineering.
  • Business fluency in English (reading, writing, and speaking) with strong communication skills. English will be the language used for all formal communication with team members.
  • Passion for building developer-centric solutions and improving the developer experience.
  • Proficiency in TypeScript, Node.js, React, and PostgreSQL. (We value strong engineering skills over specific tech stacks and are confident you can learn new languages/frameworks as needed.)

You (ideally) might also have:

  • Experience building and maintaining integrations with third-party platforms and managing external dependencies.
  • Familiarity with scaling API products.
  • Experience working with remote teams across various time zones.

Potential For Full-Time Employment:

Technology

Rutter is an infrastructure product that runs on Typescript, Node, PostgresQL, TypeORM, and is distributed on multiple AWS instances (we use Heroku and GitHub Actions for deployment).
