Software Engineer
You will build, test, and release product facing features with stringent correctness and scalability requirements. You will design, develop, and maintain backend services, APIs, and data models that power core product functionality. You will build and evolve distributed systems that support business critical workflows, transactions, and integrations. You will own backend components throughout their full lifecycle, including requirements definition, design, implementation, testing, deployment, production support, and continuous improvement. You will collaborate with cross functional engineering teams to deliver end to end product features and integrate with internal and external systems. You will improve system reliability, performance, and scalability by identifying bottlenecks, optimizing service interactions, and applying distributed systems best practices. You will write high quality, well tested code and participate in code reviews, design reviews, and technical discussions to maintain engineering excellence. You will participate in on call rotations, incident response, root cause analysis, and remediation efforts to ensure backend service stability and availability. You will monitor and debug production systems using logs, metrics, and traces to validate system health and meet service level objectives. You will ensure backend systems meet security, privacy, and compliance requirements through secure design and implementation. You will document system designs, APIs, data schemas, and operational considerations to support maintainability and knowledge sharing. Telecommuting permitted.
