Responsibilities

- Performance : Maintain less than 200 ms P95 latency for all user-critical operations at 10x the current scale.
- Incident Reduction : Implement monitoring and automation that reduces production incidents by 80%.
- Team Enablement : Create platform abstractions that let product teams ship features 3x faster.

Requirements

- Must-Have : Distributed Systems Experience.
- 3+ years building and scaling distributed systems handling > 5K concurrent requests in production.
- Hands-on experience with microservices decomposition from monolithic architectures under live traffic.
- Production experience with service mesh technologies and container orchestration at scale.
- Deep understanding of database sharding, replication, and distributed transaction management.
- Hands-on experience with CDN optimisation and edge computing for global/multi-region deployments.
- Proven ability to optimise systems, achieving less than 100 ms P99 latency for critical user-facing operations.

Tech Stack

- What works : FastAPI, Redis, PostgreSQL, AWS, Python 3.11+.
- What you'll choose : async framework, message broker, observability stack, Celery queues, and LLM technical calls.
