- Architect real-time, low-latency APIs and backend services for large-scale data-ingestion.
- Develop cloud-native services in Java, ensuring reliability, performance, and scalability.
- Work on infrastructure components, including AWS-based deployments, containerization (Docker), and orchestration (Kubernetes/ECS).
- Ensure resiliency, fault tolerance, and compliance in high-throughput environments.
- Collaborate with product managers, infrastructure engineers, and other teams to deliver production-ready systems.
- Contribute to technical discussions, share knowledge, and help evolve best practices in backend and infra engineering.
What We're Looking For
- Strong track record of designing and implementing scalable, reliable, and high-performance backend systems.
- Experience architecting and delivering backend solutions that handle large-scale data processing and integration with multiple services.
- Ability to communicate complex technical concepts in a clear and pragmatic way.
- Experience designing, building, and scaling distributed backend systems.
- Proven ability to drive end-to-end delivery of features from design through deployment and monitoring.
- Experience developing cloud-native services in Java.
- Hands-on experience with AWS-based deployments, Docker, and orchestration platforms such as Kubernetes or ECS.
