• Optimize for latency, throughput, and reliability (caching, retries, idempotency).
• Collaborate with product and frontend teams in an agile environment.

Qualifications:
• 3–6 years of Go backend development experience.
• Strong knowledge of cloud (AWS/GCP), Kubernetes, and IaC (Terraform).
• Experience with authentication (OAuth, JWT) and monitoring (Prometheus/Grafana).
• Bonus: Familiarity with healthtech or compliance (HIPAA).
