About this role

Software Engineer II (Backend, Platform) Boston, MA At WHOOP, we're on a mission to unlock human performance and healthspan. WHOOP empowers members to perform at a higher level and live longer through a deeper understanding of their bodies and daily lives. Protecting our members' data and ensuring our systems scale securely and reliably is core to this mission. WHOOP is hiring a Software Engineer II focused on backend development to build and enhance systems that power our platform. This role will directly contribute to delivering scalable and secure services that support millions of members worldwide. While backend development expertise is the primary focus, familiarity with cybersecurity concepts (data privacy, AuthN/AuthZ, etc) or cloud infrastructure concepts (AWS, IaC, Kubernetes, etc) will be considered a strong plus. This is a top-funnel role: depending on your background and interests, you may align more closely with our Product Security team (focused on secure-by-default guardrails, compliance, and data privacy) or our Application Infrastructure team (focused on scalability, reliability, and developer enablement). Either way, you'll have the opportunity to shape core platform practices and help WHOOP grow to the next level. This posting is for an immediate new hire to our team. For those graduating in the fall of 2026 seeking entry level roles, we kindly ask that you check out this New Grad Opportunities job posting instead to be considered for roles opening at that time. Thank you. At WHOOP, we're on a mission to unlock human performance and healthspan. WHOOP empowers members to perform
