Job Description

Imagine you want to buy a rug for your home. You want to make sure it will not only fit but also look great. Our technology lets you see a rug in your own space before you buy it. Don't believe us? Try it for yourself (

At Leap Tools, we are building the world's most advanced solutions for the interior décor industry. Our customers include Fortune 500 companies such as Home Depot and local retailers such as Alexanian's. An important part of our business is dedicated to empowering small, independent retailers with innovative solutions to thrive in the digital marketplace.

We are one of the fastest-growing tech companies according to Deloitte's Fast 500, and we are hiring ambitious and collaborative challenge-seekers to fuel our momentum and help us create an iconic global tech company.

About you

You have a passion for solving complex problems and working on products used by millions of people. You enjoy setting the bar high and clearing it. You can lead by example, but you know when to step aside and let the team run with the ball. Your technical knowledge is matched only by your passion to design, create, and succeed with others.

You want to build on your experience. You are interested in making a big impact, but perhaps you are currently limited in your growth potential. Join us and you will work directly with our talented engineering team to push our product to new heights.

About our Stack

  • Python, Django, Kubernetes, PostgreSQL, AWS

What You'll Do:

  • Drive the design, architecture, and delivery of complex backend systems that enable 3D and computer vision experiences at scale.
  • Lead the development of mission-critical APIs, data pipelines, and services that support high-traffic applications used globally.
  • Partner with product and engineering leadership to define technical direction, identify foundational investments, and plan for scale and performance.
  • Serve as a force multiplier by mentoring senior engineers, conducting architecture reviews, and enabling high-quality, high-velocity development across teams.
  • Champion engineering excellence and set the technical bar for backend systems in terms of scalability, resiliency, observability, and maintainability.
  • Lead cross-functional initiatives that span multiple teams and stakeholders across the business.
  • Help shape the long-term technical vision and culture of the engineering organization.
  • Influence hiring, onboarding, and growth strategies to ensure a strong and healthy team over time.

We're looking for someone with:

  • 8+ years of software development experience building and operating scalable, reliable systems in production environments.
  • Strong experience with complex ETL flows and high-throughput systems is highly preferred.
  • Deep understanding of computer science fundamentals (algorithms, data structures, networking, databases).
  • Proven experience designing and scaling distributed systems focusing on performance, observability, and fault tolerance.
  • Strong architectural instincts and the ability to make high-leverage technical decisions that impact multiple teams and systems.
  • Demonstrated ability to influence and mentor senior engineers, guide teams through ambiguity, and elevate engineering practices across the board.
  • Exceptional ownership mindset — you drive initiatives forward, raise the bar, and deliver lasting impact.
  • Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills.
  • Comfortable operating in a fast-paced, high-autonomy, product-driven environment.
  • Experience with e-commerce and catalog management is preferred.
  • Familiarity with our stack (Python, Django, Kubernetes, PostgreSQL, AWS) is strongly preferred, but deep expertise in analogous systems and a willingness to learn are welcome.

About our culture

  • We're a remote-first company that encourages our employees to work from where they're most productive.
  • We work in tight-knit teams to cultivate an ownership mentality.
  • We cherish curiosity and an obsession for details because we know these details are invaluable over the long run.
  • We're hyper-focused on our achievements and our ability to execute our promises. We act with urgency.
  • We value work-life balance by offering generous time off
  • Work anywhere in the world for up to 3 months!
  • We value families, by offering a parental leave program
  • We offer a work-from-home stipend
  • Your birthday (and our company's birthday) is a day off!
