  • Design, develop, and maintain cloud-native microservices and distributed systems.
  • Own specific platform components from initial design through production deployment.
  • Perform deep debugging of distributed services to resolve issues affecting downstream consumers.
  • Analyze system performance and implement optimizations for capacity and reliability.
  • Build automation tools to reduce operational toil and improve service monitoring.
  • Author technical documentation, samples, and guidance for internal developers.
  • Participate in on-call rotations and lead incident response activities.
  • Mentor junior engineers and provide feedback during code reviews.

What we're looking for

  • Applicants must be able to read, write, and speak English.
  • Candidates should have 3 to 5+ years of relevant experience.
  • Proficiency in programming languages such as Java, Go, C++, or Python is required.
  • Experience developing REST APIs and microservices within distributed systems is required.
  • Knowledge of concurrency, multithreading, and asynchronous programming is required.
  • Understanding of cloud computing concepts, service-oriented architectures, and high availability systems is required.
