You will contribute across the full development lifecycle, from conceptualization and architectural design to implementation, testing, and operational support, while also acting as a mentor to junior engineers and championing best engineering practices.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the design, development, and implementation of complex software features and systems within a microservices architecture.
• Write clean, efficient, well-documented, and testable code primarily in Python or Go, adhering to high quality standards.
• Collaborate closely with product managers, UX/UI designers, and cross-functional engineering teams to define requirements, scope projects, and deliver exceptional solutions that meet business needs.
• Actively participate in code reviews, providing constructive feedback, ensuring code quality, security, and adherence to established engineering guidelines.
• Identify and proactively address performance bottlenecks, architectural deficiencies, and other technical challenges to enhance system reliability, scalability, and maintainability.
• Provide technical leadership and mentorship to junior and mid-level software engineers, fostering a culture of knowledge sharing, growth, and continuous improvement.
• Contribute significantly to architectural discussions and decisions, helping to shape the future direction and technical roadmap of our platforms.
• Stay abreast of emerging technologies, industry trends, and best practices, evaluating and integrating relevant advancements into our projects to maintain our competitive edge.
• Develop and maintain comprehensive automated tests (unit, integration, end-to-end) to ensure software quality and prevent regressions in a CI/CD environment.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field.
• 5+ years of professional experience in software development, with a proven track record of shipping successful, high-quality software products or systems.
• Expertise in at least one modern backend programming language such as Python, Go, Java, or C++, with a strong understanding of object-oriented or functional programming paradigms.
• Demonstrated experience in designing, building, and maintaining scalable, distributed systems, RESTful APIs, and microservices.
• Solid understanding of data structures, algorithms, and software design patterns.
• Proficiency with cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP) and familiarity with containerization technologies (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).
• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to diagnose and resolve complex technical issues efficiently.
• Excellent communication, interpersonal, and collaboration skills, with the ability to articulate complex technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Experience with relational databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL) and/or NoSQL databases (e.g., MongoDB, Cassandra, DynamoDB).

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with message queuing systems (e.g., Kafka, RabbitMQ, SQS).
• Familiarity with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools like Terraform or CloudFormation.
• Prior experience working in an Agile/Scrum development environment.
• Contributions to open-source projects or a strong portfolio showcasing personal technical projects.
• Experience with performance optimization and large-scale data processing systems.
• Knowledge of front-end technologies (e.g., React, Angular, Vue.js) is a plus, but not required for this backend-focused role.

What We Offer

• A highly competitive salary and equity compensation package.
• Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance plans for you and your family.
• Generous paid time off, including vacation, sick leave, and company holidays.
• Flexible work arrangements and a supportive work-life balance culture.
• Significant professional development opportunities, including conference attendance, workshops, and a dedicated learning budget.
• A vibrant, inclusive, and collaborative work environment with passionate and brilliant colleagues.
• State-of-the-art hardware, tools, and software to ensure you have everything you need to succeed.
