- Ensure high performance and reliability of backend systems through testing, monitoring, and optimization.
- Integrate with data pipelines and analytics services to deliver real-time insights to frontend components.
- Participate in architectural discussions and contribute to the evolution of our backend ecosystem.
- Embrace DevOps practices, including CI/CD, containerization, and infrastructure as code.
- Work in an agile environment, contributing to sprint planning, reviews, and retrospectives.
Qualifications
- 5+ years of experience in backend development, ideally in Java.
- Strong background in scalable software architecture: microservices, APIs (REST, gRPC), containers (Docker, Kubernetes, Istio), and messaging systems (Kafka).
- Experience with Micronaut or Spring Boot frameworks.
- Familiarity with frontend-backend integration patterns, especially in micro frontend environments.
- Knowledge of container technologies (Docker, Kubernetes) and cloud platforms (AWS preferred).
- Experience with messaging systems like Kafka is a plus.
- Good understanding of relational and NoSQL databases.
