Working within a modern cloud-native environment, you will contribute to technical strategy, influence architectural decisions, and help define engineering standards across teams. The role requires strong hands-on expertise in backend development combined with the ability to mentor engineers and elevate technical maturity within the organization. You will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, contributing to incident resolution, continuous improvement, and platform evolution. This is a highly impactful position for someone who enjoys deep technical challenges and wants to shape robust, high-availability systems.

Accountabilities:

  • Lead the design and development of high-performance backend services using Java 11+ and modern frameworks such as Micronaut.
  • Architect and evolve microservices and event-driven systems leveraging Kafka and related streaming patterns.
  • Define and implement best practices for scalability, resilience, security, and observability in AWS-based environments.
  • Design and optimize PostgreSQL data models and queries to ensure high performance and reliability.
  • Establish engineering standards for versioning, security, and service governance across backend systems.
  • Conduct code reviews, ensuring high-quality delivery and consistency in engineering practices.
  • Support incident analysis, troubleshooting, and continuous system improvement.

    • Deep knowledge of PostgreSQL, including modeling, tuning, and performance optimization.
    • Experience with AWS services such as RDS, MSK, API Gateway, and Infrastructure as Code tools (Terraform or CloudFormation is a plus).
    • Knowledge of CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and DevOps practices.
    • Proven ability to lead and deliver complex technical solutions in production environments.
    • Familiarity with software engineering best practices and scalable system design.

      • Differentials:

      • Experience with DDD, Event Sourcing, or CQRS.
      • Familiarity with observability and monitoring tools such as DataDog, OpenTelemetry, or Feature Flags.
      • Previous experience in a Tech Lead or technical leadership role.
      • Exposure to multi-region and fault-tolerant architectures.

        • Benefits:

        • Competitive compensation aligned with senior-level technical expertise.
        • Remote-first work model with flexible collaboration.
