- Develop and maintain backend services across Python (FastAPI) and Node.js (NestJS) microservices, ensuring strong performance, robust data management, and ongoing modernization efforts.
- Design, implement, and maintain reliable REST APIs with clear contracts, validation, and consistent error handling.
- Work with complex relational data models, continuously improving query performance and data reliability.
- Lead investigations and root-cause analysis for performance, optimization, and production-related issues, driving long-term improvements.
- Collaborate closely with frontend, backend, QA, and product teams in a multi-repo environment, including active code reviews and cross-site collaboration with our Boston engineering team.
- Take ownership of code quality and production stability by writing automated tests (e.g., pytest, Jest) and driving issues from investigation through resolution and prevention.
Qualifications:
- B.Sc. in Computer Science or Software Engineering from a top-tier academic institution (Technion, TAU, BGU, HUJI, or the Open University)
- 3+ years of professional software engineering experience building and maintaining production web application systems.
- Strong backend experience with Python or TypeScript, working within service-oriented architectures.

- Solid production experience with relational databases, including schema design, query optimization, and performance tuning.
- Experience working with AWS and cloud-based infrastructure, and improving developer workflows in multi-repo environments.
- Experience designing and maintaining REST APIs used by web applications.
- Strong debugging skills and experience troubleshooting performance and reliability issues in production systems.
- Proven experience leading the full dev lifecycle: from driving technical design and scaling product requirements, to hands-on execution with high standards for code reviews, documentation, and incremental delivery.
- Strong communication skills and an ownership mindset.
Advantages:
- Hands-on experience with FastAPI and/or NestJS.
- Strong experience with PostgreSQL, including advanced schema design, indexing strategies, and performance optimization.
- Experience writing automated tests (unit + integration) and end-to-end testing using tools such as Playwright.
- Experience working with observability and monitoring tools such as Coralogix and Sentry.

- Experience working in a monorepo environment with shared code and coordinated cross-project changes.
- Experience with Redis, RabbitMQ, or Kafka.
What we offer:
- A culture that values product ownership, collaborative architectural planning, and building wins for your resume/portfolio as much as for the company.
