About Sequester

Sequester is a privacy-first encrypted vault for personal photos and videos. We build software where security, reliability, and user trust are product features???not afterthoughts.

About this role

You will hunt milliseconds and megabytes???profiling Sequester's mobile and backend paths so vault operations feel instant even on mid-range devices and slow networks.

What you will do

  • Profile mobile apps (CPU, memory, network, battery) and backend hot paths under load
  • Build repeatable benchmarks for upload, encrypt, sync, and gallery scroll scenarios
  • File performance regressions with flame graphs and reproduction budgets
  • Collaborate with engineers on fixes???caching, batching, algorithm changes???not just reports
  • Track performance KPIs release-over-release in dashboards

What we are looking for

  • Performance engineering experience on mobile, backend, or full-stack products
  • Tooling familiarity (Flutter DevTools, py-spy, pprof, k6, Lighthouse as relevant)
  • Systems thinking: know when the fix is client-side vs. API vs. database
  • Clear communication of tradeoffs to product and engineering leads

Location

Remote-friendly. We hire globally and collaborate async-first across time zones.
