About the Role

We’re looking for talented Backend Engineers to implement low-latency, performant, robust APIs.

You will write scalable, high-performance failsafe systems that will be consumed by both developers and clients that will be stress tested by high volumes of data and traffic. A knowledge of solution architecture is essential, and able to input on educated decisions over the best way forward as our tech stack grows and tries to accommodate growing challenges.

Familiarity with microservice architecture, design patterns, data structures and database optimization is essential. REST Apis should be very familiar to you, along with a good knowledge of Websocket/Streaming systems, Message brokers and Cache/In-Memory solutions.

If you do have experience in the Web3 ecosystem is great but not essential, we’ll be more than happy to fill any gaps.

Basic cloud knowledge is desirable (Google Cloud Provider is a big plus but not essential), as some interaction with our infrastructure will be required from time to time for optimal integration.

At Arkhia, we expect for people to come up with creative input, challenge the status quo, and be interested in growing within and beyond their role. And most importantly of all, just have fun as a team as we’re building innovative new products.

• Experience with Google Cloud Provider, Kubernetes/Docker
• Experience with Message Brokers on a high data volume scenario
• Solid knowledge of scalable Streaming Publish/Subscribe systems
• Postgres and Timeseries databases (e.g. Timescale DB )
