Lead the development of scalable backend services, APIs, and Temporal workflows to support AI-driven automation and the Lakehouse ecosystem. Provide technical leadership and guidance to an offshore engineering team while ensuring system resilience and performance.
Requires professional experience in backend engineering with proficiency in TypeScript, Python, or Java and a strong background in cloud-native development. A Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related field and English proficiency are mandatory.
Choosing where to start and grow your career has a major impact on your professional and personal life, so it’s equally important you know that the company that you choose to work at, and its leaders, will support and guide you. With a diversity of people, global locations, technologies and products, 3M is a place where you can collaborate with 93,000 other curious, creative 3Mers.
3M is seeking a Backend Software Engineering Lead to join the Corporate Research Digital Lab (CRDL) to develop and support scalable, distributed applications and workflows built on cloud technologies. As part of an agile team, you will serve as the primary backend technical lead in Brazil, working hands-on to develop APIs, onboarding services, and Temporal workflows that support scalable, reliable automation integrated with the Lakehouse ecosystem. This role combines day-to-day technical leadership with delivery accountability and plays an important part in building production-ready systems, supporting complex automation flows, and advancing AI- and agent-driven initiatives through backend APIs and workflows that enable LLM-based automation, tool execution, and intelligent orchestration of data and processes.
Design, develop, and operate scalable backend services and APIs to support onboarding, integration, and workflow-driven applications.
Build service and integration layers that enable intelligent automation, tool orchestration, and AI-enabled workflows.
Define clean, reusable service contracts and interfaces that support composable, automation-first architectures.
Build and maintain Temporal workflows for complex, distributed, long-running, and event-driven processes.
Implement advanced orchestration patterns such as retries, timeouts, compensation logic, and idempotent execution.
Develop backend solutions integrated with the Lakehouse ecosystem, connecting pipelines, metadata services, and enterprise platforms.
Serve as the day-to-day technical lead for an offshore engineering team, providing technical guidance, code reviews, and engineering best practices.
Partner closely with global engineering teams to translate architecture into production-ready backend services and workflows.
Ensure systems are scalable, observable, resilient, and optimized for performance and cost efficiency.

To set you up for success in this role from day one, 3M requires the following qualifications:
Professional experience in backend software engineering.
Strong experience building backend systems using TypeScript/Node.js, Python, or Java.
Proven experience designing and developing RESTful APIs and microservices.
Experience working with distributed systems and event-driven architectures.
Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (AWS preferred) and cloud-native development.
Experience implementing reliable, scalable services with strong understanding of fault tolerance and performance.
Demonstrated ability to mentor engineers or lead small teams, including code reviews and technical guidance.
Experience working in agile development environments with CI/CD pipelines and modern DevOps practices.
Bachelor’s degree or higher in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field.
Proficiency in English.
Additional qualifications that could help you succeed even further in this role include:
Hands-on experience with Temporal.io (strongly preferred) or similar workflow orchestration platforms (Cadence, Airflow, Step Functions).
Experience designing and implementing workflow orchestration patterns (retries, compensation, idempotency, long-running processes).
Experience building backend systems and APIs that support agentic or AI-driven workflows, including LLM-based automation or tool orchestration.
Experience integrating with Databricks or modern Lakehouse/data platforms.
Experience with relational and NoSQL databases (PostgreSQL, DynamoDB, etc.).
Familiarity with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes, EKS/ECS).
Experience implementing observability solutions (CloudWatch, Prometheus, ELK, OpenTelemetry).
