• Build and maintain microservices following established architecture patterns and engineering standards.
• Collaborate with Product Managers, Frontend Engineers, and QA to deliver end-to-end features and seamless integrations.
• Plan and contribute to CI/CD pipelines and containerized deployments using Docker & Kubernetes.
• Write clean, testable, and well-documented code in alignment with team coding standards.
• Participate in code reviews and recommend improvements to development processes.
• Use AI-assisted coding tools where appropriate for implementation, debugging, tests, and documentation, validating all output through established engineering practices.
• Troubleshoot and resolve backend performance issues, API failures, and database bottlenecks.
• Evaluate and implement caching, queuing, and optimization techniques under team guidance.
• Maintain technical documentation for services, APIs, and system components.
• Stay current with backend ecosystem trends and contribute learnings to the team.
Senior
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).
• 5+ years of professional backend development experience with a proven record of building high-traffic, mission-critical systems.
• Deep expertise in Golang, Java Spring Boot, or Python; proficiency in more than one language is a strong advantage.
• Proven track record architecting and leading microservices-based backend systems at scale.
• Strong command of RESTful API design principles, including versioning, security, and performance.
• Expert-level experience with databases: PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle, MongoDB, Redis — including query optimization and schema design.
• Solid experience with cloud platforms (AWS or GCP) and containerization tools (Docker, Kubernetes).
• Expertise in CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and deployment best practices.
• Familiarity with AI-assisted coding tools such as Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, or similar, with the judgment to review and test generated output.
• Strong understanding of system reliability, observability, and security practices.
• Experience leading code reviews and setting engineering standards for a team.
• Excellent communication, stakeholder management, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
• Prior experience in high-traffic, mission-critical production environments is required.
