ABOUT THE ROLE

We are looking for a Backend Developer to design, build, and maintain scalable systems for a Product‑led engineering team. This person works in Java and/or Kotlin with Spring Boot, GraphQL, MongoDB, and Aurora MySQL on AWS, covering everything from operational tooling to system architecture. Comfort picking up compliance, cost‑savings, and observability work matters here.

WHAT YOU WILL DO
- Take on lower‑priority engineering work the team lacks bandwidth for, including compliance and engineering maintenance, cost‑savings, observability, experiment clean‑up, and operational tool development.
- Design, build, and maintain scalable, performant, and reliable software systems.
- Contribute to system architecture and technical design, validating solutions through data and experimentation where appropriate.
- Participate in code reviews and design reviews to maintain high engineering standards.




- Collaborate closely with cross‑functional partners, including software engineers, product managers, data scientists, and designers.
- Partner with a Product Manager and fellow engineers to clarify requirements and perform mid‑level design work, focusing primarily on coding, testing, and documentation.

MUST HAVES
- 3+ years of professional, backend‑focused software development experience.
- Proficiency in Java and/or Kotlin.
- Proficiency in a modern NoSQL database, MongoDB on Atlas.
- Proficiency in a modern relational database, Aurora MySQL on AWS.
- Experience building cloud‑native distributed systems on AWS.
- Experience with the Spring Boot framework.
- API development with GraphQL (Netflix DGS).
- Experience building and operating large‑scale, high‑performance, and resilient systems on a major cloud platform.

NICE TO HAVES
- Event‑driven system development, ideally with Apache Kafka and/or SQS.
