Senior/Staff Software Engineer

• Design, implement, and own highly available microservices and backend APIs that serve large-scale traffic with low latency.
• Drive architecture and implementation decisions across the stack: data models, storage patterns (SQL/NoSQL), caching, and event-driven systems.
• Ship secure, well-tested code-lead code reviews, define testing strategies, and establish CI/CD best practices.
• Instrument systems for observability: metrics, tracing, and logging; proactively diagnose and resolve production incidents.
• Collaborate with product, security, and SRE teams to scope features, estimate delivery, and define SLAs and SLOs.
• Mentor engineers, promote engineering excellence, and contribute to roadmap and technical planning.

Must-Have

• 5+ years building backend systems or platform services in production (Python, Java, or Go).
• Proven experience with cloud platforms (AWS/GCP/Azure) and container orchestration (Kubernetes).
• Strong knowledge of microservices architecture, REST/GraphQL API design, and database modeling (SQL & NoSQL).
• Practical experience with CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code (Terraform), and observability tooling.

Preferred

• Experience driving reliability engineering practices (SLOs, incident retrospectives) and performance optimization at scale.
• Background in distributed systems, event-driven architectures, or large-scale data processing.

• Hybrid work model with flexible remote days and collaborative on-site engineering sprints.
• Competitive compensation, equity participation, and comprehensive benefits (medical, dental, vision).
• Growth-focused culture: mentorship, learning stipends, and frequent technical brown-bags.

We seek pragmatic engineers who care about user impact, code quality, and system reliability. If you enjoy owning end-to-end outcomes and thrive in a collaborative, fast-paced environment, this role offers a platform to influence technical direction and deliver meaningful product outcomes.
