Ensure systems are built for scalability, reliability, and low-latency performance under continuous 24/7 operational demands.
Triage, debug, and resolve production issues efficiently, driving operational excellence and system stability.
Collaborate cross-functionally with product, engineering, and architecture teams to align technical solutions with business objectives.
Mentor and support other engineers through code reviews, design discussions, and best practice sharing.

Requirements:

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience.
3+ years of backend software engineering experience in object-oriented programming languages such as Java or C#.
Strong understanding of OOP principles, backend architecture patterns, and system design fundamentals.
Proven experience building and operating scalable distributed systems in cloud environments such as AWS or Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
Experience designing and maintaining automated test suites, including unit, integration, and performance testing.
Strong debugging and production troubleshooting skills in high-scale environments.
Demonstrated ability to mentor engineers and contribute to technical leadership within a team.
Excellent collaboration and communication skills in cross-functional engineering environments.
