Snout App | 2–3 Month Contract | Remote, LATAM | Immediate Start
About Snout App
Snout App is a fast-growing startup reimagining how dog training works for modern families. They believe training shouldn’t feel overwhelming, inconsistent, or confusing. It should feel guided, personalized, and achievable.
Snout App combines science-backed training methods, certified trainer expertise, and intelligent technology to create adaptive training plans that evolve with each dog’s progress. Through AI-powered video feedback and personalized recommendations, the app helps pet parents build confidence, solve real behavioral challenges, and strengthen the bond with their dogs.
They are building something meaningful — a product that genuinely improves daily life for dogs and the humans who love them.
Snout App is a small, high-ownership startup team moving quickly toward MVP launch. They are now looking for a hands-on Backend Engineer who wants to help ship core functionality and bring this product to life.
This is not a maintenance role.
This is a build, own, and launch role.
What You’ll Be Doing
You’ll work directly with the CTO to implement and deliver key backend milestones, including:
- User authentication and onboarding (AWS Cognito)
- Subscription and payment management
- GraphQL API development
- Backend architecture implementation in AWS
- Database design and integration (PostgreSQL)
- Close collaboration with the iOS developer for seamless integration
- Contributing to secure, scalable, production-ready infrastructure
You will be evaluated based on deliverables, not hours.
Tech Stack (Required Experience)
You must have direct, hands-on experience with:
- Node.jsTypeScriptAWS (production environments)
- GraphQL APIs
- AWS Cognito
- Relational databases (PostgreSQL-level experience)
This is not a “learn on the job” role. They need someone who has built and shipped using this stack before.
Who Will Thrive Here
Mindset matters as much as technical ability.
You will thrive in this role if you:
- Take ownership without waiting for step-by-step directionWork confidently with minimal supervision
- See problems and propose solutions
- Move quickly, ship, and iterate
- Accept feedback without defensiveness
- Have experience in startup or fast-moving product environments
- Have worked on B2C / consumer-facing products (strongly preferred)
This is a lean startup environment. There are no layers. You will work directly with the CTO and collaborate closely with the iOS developer.

What This Role Is Not
- Not a passive engineering role
- Not a heavily structured enterprise environment
- Not a long onboarding cycle
- Not a “wait for tickets” position
Snout App is looking for someone who wants to build, own meaningful work, and help launch a product with real impact.
