  • Experience with performance tuning, system monitoring, and observability tools
  • Excellent debugging, analytical, and problem-solving skills
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills across technical and non-technical stakeholders

Nice to have:

  • 9+ years of experience as a backend engineer, with demonstrated leadership in complex system design
  • Experience with data modeling and working with SQL and NoSQL databases (e.g., Postgres, DynamoDB)
