About the role

Design, build, and maintain scalable, reliable software systems. Collaborate with product, design, and other engineers to deliver features, fix bugs, and improve system performance and developer productivity.

Key responsibilities

• Design, implement, test, and maintain backend, frontend, or full‑stack features per product requirements.
• Write clean, maintainable, and well‑tested code; participate in code reviews and follow coding standards.
• Build and maintain APIs, services, and integrations; ensure correct versioning and backward compatibility.
• Debug production issues, perform root‑cause analysis, and drive fixes with observability and monitoring.
• Contribute to system architecture, technical decisions, and performance/cost optimizations.
• Implement automated tests (unit, integration), CI/CD pipelines, and reliable deployment practices.
• Work with databases (relational and/or NoSQL), caching, and data modeling for performance and scalability.
• Collaborate on design, specification, and estimation; break work into deliverable tasks.
• Maintain documentation, runbooks, and design notes; mentor junior engineers.

• Familiarity with distributed systems, microservices, event‑driven architectures, and message queues.
• Experience with performance tuning, profiling, and scalable database design.
• Knowledge of observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, Datadog) and SRE practices.
• Experience with infrastructure as code (Terraform, CloudFormation) and CI/CD tooling.
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience).
