- Collaborate with other engineers, PMs, and designers
What We're Looking For:
- 3+ years of relevant industry experience
- BS/BA degree in Computer Science
- Experience designing, building, scaling and maintaining core backend software components (experience with API platforms a plus)
- Ability to solve complex design, scaling, latency, or performance problems in high-throughput, low-latency systems
- Experience with High throughput streaming services like kafka is a plus
- Experience with data pipelining like google dataflow is a plus
- Experience with AWS technologies is a plus
- Experience with GCP technologies is a plus
- Experience with production distributed systems, web applications, and microservice architecture
- Experience developing with Java (Micronauts)
- Proven track record building highly available and highly scalable systems
- Self-starter attitude and the ability to execute new ideas with autonomy
- Know how to find the right balance between perfection and shipping quickly
- Web3 experience, a plus
- Founded a company or built side projects, a plus
- Experience in startups, a plus
