  • Regularly engage in code reviews and provide constructive feedback.

  • Optimize the performance, reliability and scalability of existing backend services.

  • Investigate, prototype and propose ideas to improve user experience.

  • Create and maintain technical documentation for systems and processes, ensuring clarity and accessibility.

  • Participate in on-call rotation, troubleshoot and debug to solve incidents.

What you bring to the role:

  • Strong proficiency in Python, Golang and experience with Kubernetes.

  • Solid understanding of and experience with integrating with RESTful APIs and distributed systems.

  • Comfortable with testing frameworks, such as pytest.

  • Strong communication skills, both written and verbal, with experience in creating technical specifications.

  • A passion for reliability and operational excellence.

  • Ability to scope work and coordinate cross-functionally to address risks and ensure successful delivery.

  • Experience with software development best practices, such as code reviews, testing, CI/CD, version control, automation and debugging.

  • Ability to adjust to change and rapid pace of development.

  • Proactive approach to identifying and addressing issues, with a focus on ownership and accountability.

Bonus points if you have:

  • Experience with Apache Airflow

  • Experience working on a SaaS product
