  • Profile applications, implement caching strategies, and fine-tune data access patterns to reduce latency.
  • Ensure code quality, observability, and API usability for both internal and external developers.
  • Participate in performance benchmarking, production monitoring, and incident resolution when required.

  • Strong experience with backend systems and programming languages such as Python, Rust, or similar.
  • Proven ability to build high-throughput, low-latency services (millions of requests per minute).
  • Solid understanding of distributed systems, performance optimization techniques, and caching strategies.
  • Experience designing APIs and creating clean, maintainable, and scalable architecture.
  • Comfortable making high-level architecture decisions and rapidly implementing solutions.
  • Familiarity with observability systems, benchmarking, and profiling tools.
  • Experience with feature flag systems or real-time decision engines is a plus.
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment with shifting priorities and complex technical challenges.

  • Fully remote work within U.S. time zones (GMT-8 to GMT+2).
  • Opportunity to work on high-impact systems used by millions of users.
  • Collaborate with a distributed, highly skilled engineering team.
  • Exposure to cutting-edge technologies and modern backend architectures.
  • Professional growth and ownership of end-to-end service development.
  • Competitive compensation and benefits package aligned with experience and skills.
