What’s on this page

Every remote backend engineering role on 101 Careers — titles matching backend, back-end and the spellings in between, from junior backend engineers through staff and principal. Backend work was built for remote: the product is APIs, data pipelines, infrastructure and the services everything else depends on, and the collaboration happens in code review, design docs and async chat rather than meetings. This pool is title-matched rather than tag-matched, so it catches backend roles at companies that don't tag their listings "engineering" the way we'd expect — you see the market as employers actually describe it. The 139 roles below are sorted newest first and sourced mostly from employer applicant tracking systems. Apply direct to the employer, no account and no fee. Stacks vary widely across the pool — Node, Python, Go, Java, Ruby and .NET all appear — so filter by the tags on each listing if your experience is stack-specific rather than generalist.

How often this updates

Employer ATS boards are re-read every six hours and partner feeds every three. Roles that disappear from their source are retired automatically, so nothing on this page should be a dead link. Prefer it as a feed? RSS and a free JSON API are both open.
