Responsibilities

  • Lead engineering efforts to decompose our monolithic applications into scalable, modular microservices.
  • Design, develop, and maintain clean, efficient, and well-tested code in both backend (Python, Ruby) and frontend (React/Angular) stacks.
  • Build and evolve secure, high-performance APIs supporting real-time data pipelines and customer-facing applications.
  • Partner with cross-functional teams including Product, QA, DevOps, and Data Engineering to build end-to-end solutions that meet business goals.
  • You'll collaborate across geographies with engineers, product managers, and designers to deliver resilient, secure, and customer-focused experiences.
  • Collaborate with a global, inclusive, and high-performing team.

  • Experience designing and consuming gRPC APIs in production environments a plus

Skills

  • Champion engineering best practices including CI/CD, TDD, pair programming, and code reviews.
  • Take ownership of projects from ideation through deployment, with a bias for execution and iterative improvement.
  • Contribute to our cloud-native infrastructure using AWS serverless technologies (e.g., Lambda, SQS, DynamoDB, S3).
