  • Highly aware of cloud scalability impacts when designing and delivering code.

  • Resilient, optimistic, and adaptable—even in the face of ambiguity or change.

  • Resourceful, innovative, and eager to learn new tools, technologies, and approaches.

  • Accountable, dependable, and known for under-promising and over-delivering.

  • Comfortable context-switching between diagnosing application issues (Prometheus, Grafana), triaging production problems (Google Logging, Cloud Trace), improving tests, designing new solutions, and writing code.

Your Skill SetMust Have
  • 5–7 years of software development experience.

  • Experience designing and implementing highly scalable, cloud-based APIs.

  • Proficiency in multiple programming languages, including Python and Go.

  • Expertise in data structures, algorithms, and concurrency.

  • Familiarity with data storage technologies such as Redis and MySQL.

  • Knowledge of Docker and container orchestration frameworks (e.g., Kubernetes).

  • Experience developing and maintaining services using AWS technologies such as Kinesis, DynamoDB, and S3.

  • Strong Linux proficiency.
