• Write clear technical designs, participate in code reviews, and uphold high engineering standards and security practices.
• Identify and drive opportunities to simplify architectures, reduce operational load, and improve developer experience.
• Support emerging AI-related integration projects in partnership with product and platform teams.
• Participate in our on-call rotation, available at all times while on-call to help respond to and triage any issues that arise.

WHO YOU ARE

• 3+ years of professional software engineering experience with a strong backend focus.
• Proficiency in Java for building APIs and services; familiarity with Node.js/JavaScript/TypeScript a plus.
• Experience designing and operating RESTful APIs and integrating with third-party platforms.

• Strong communicator who can collaborate across time zones and with external partners.
• Demonstrated ownership in ambiguous environments with an ability to learn new technologies quickly.
• Familiarity with cloud services, CI/CD, testing strategies, and observability practices.
