• Use modern AI-assisted development tools to accelerate design, coding, and testing
• Collaborate with Product, Customer Delivery, and Solution Architects to turn complex business requirements into robust platform capabilities

• Continuously improve our platform architecture, infrastructure, and developer productivity

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

• Strong experience building complex production systems or platform services
• Comfort designing distributed systems and service architectures
• Experience with Golang, Python, and/or Node.js / TypeScript
• Hands‑on experience running systems on modern cloud infrastructure (AWS or similar)
• Familiarity with microservices, containers, and CI/CD pipelines
• A strong focus on system design, data modeling, and long‑term maintainability
• Regular use of AI tools as part of the engineering workflow, while maintaining full ownership of system correctness
• Clear communication and a collaborative mindset when working with engineering, product, and customer teams
• Curiosity and enjoyment in tackling complex problems without predefined playbooks

Nice to Know: Our Tech-Stack

• AWS cloud infrastructure
• Containerized microservices architecture
• gRPC and event‑driven communication
• Golang, Python, Node.js / TypeScript
• React‑based administrative interfaces
