Responsibilities

- Design & Architecture
- Design scalable, resilient, and secure distributed systems and services
- Contribute to system architecture decisions with a focus on performance, maintainability, and cost efficiency
- Apply “day 2 thinking” to ensure observability, reliability, and operational readiness

- Development & Delivery

- Build high-quality backend services and APIs across microservices architectures
- Develop solutions using modern programming languages (Go, Python, JavaScript)
- Deliver production-grade systems in cloud-native environments

- Cloud & Infrastructure

- Design and deploy applications on cloud platforms (AWS preferred)
- Work with containerized environments using Docker and Kubernetes
- Implement infrastructure-as-code and automation wherever possible

- Data & Integration

- Design and manage relational data models (PostgreSQL preferred)
- Build API-first, service-oriented integrations across multiple systems
- Work with messaging/event-driven systems (e.g., RabbitMQ)

- Engineering Excellence

- Implement and maintain CI/CD pipelines and automated testing practices
- Ensure code quality, version control (Git), and documentation standards
- Collaborate in Agile/Scrum environments to deliver incremental value

- Collaboration & Communication

- Work closely with product, platform, and DevOps teams
- Communicate design decisions, trade-offs, and technical risks effectively
- Contribute to documentation, knowledge sharing, and engineering standards

Qualifications

- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience of about 10-12 years




- Robust software engineering background with architecture exposure
- Proficiency in Python and JavaScript
- Experience building and operating distributed systems at scale
- Hands-on experience with:
- Containerization & orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes)
- Cloud platforms (preferably AWS)
- Relational database design and optimization

- Solid understanding of:

- CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices
- API design and microservices architecture
- Source control (Git) and collaboration workflows

- Strong communication and documentation skills
- Proven experience working in Agile environments

Desirable / Nice to Have

- Additional language expertise in Go, C++, or C
- Deep experience with PostgreSQL (data modeling & performance tuning)
- Strong Linux/UNIX systems knowledge
- AWS services: S3, EC2, EKS, ECS
- Observability stack experience (e.g., ELK)
- Messaging systems (e.g., RabbitMQ, Kafka, or similar)
- GitHub Actions or similar CI/CD tooling
- Understanding of DevOps challenges and platform engineering needs

What We’re Looking For (Profile Fit)

- Pragmatic problem solver – balances trade-offs and avoids over-engineering
- Product-minded engineer – understands business context, not just code
- Builder mindset – moves fast while maintaining quality and discipline
- Systems thinker – designs with scale, resilience, and lifecycle in mind
- Ownership-driven – takes responsibility from design through production
- Performance-focused – experienced in building high-throughput systems

Success Measures

- High-quality, scalable systems delivered to production
- Strong system reliability, observability, and maintainability
- Effective contribution to engineering standards and practices
- Positive collaboration across product, platform, and DevOps teams.
