Contract Backend Engineer - Mid/Sr Level

The Lifetime Value Co. is looking for a Backend engineer to join our growing team. If you're comfortable writing backend APIs, working in database design, debugging complex issues that span multiple systems, optimizing distributed infrastructure, and working on cool new products then this might be the job for you. Your experience here will allow you to be a significant contributor to our Payments and Risk engineering efforts, and to learn a broad spectrum of skills up and down the stack as well as work with a breadth of technologies in any one layer. You will have a voice in what you build and you'll have the opportunity to prove your ideas right with data and testing. This role's high-level focus will center on implementing optimized fraud-blocking strategies for post-paywall transactions, improving our billing processes, managing and implementing integrations with external providers, and continuing our ongoing efforts to address tech debt for the future and improve developer and team member quality of life. For this role it is expected that the Backend Engineer will interact with the team during the hours of 10:30 am EST to 5:00 pm EST (Monday to Friday).

LTV was founded in New York by Josh Levy and Ross Cohen in 2007. At the time their mission was to provide easy and affordable access to public records. Something that in 2007, was only really accessible to corporations. Since then their mission has expanded to developing products and services that grant access to information and data across a number of verticals. In service of this mission, LTV has 10 consumer brands including BeenVerified, NumberGuru, PeopleLooker, NeighborWho, Ownerly, PeopleSmart, Bumper, ReversePhone, MoneyBot5000, and Wingmate. Our mission is to develop a diverse portfolio of technologies, products, and services, that gives all people equal access to unbiased data and information. We believe that through this access people can empower and protect themselves in today's ever-changing world, filled with fake news, deception, and a lack of transparency.
