Strong grasp of API design (REST and/or GraphQL), service architecture, and performance optimization. Infrastructure & Cloud: Hands-on experience with AWS (or comparable cloud platforms) and modern DevOps practices — including infrastructure-as-code (e.g., Terraform, CDK), containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), and CI/CD pipeline management. Database Knowledge: Proficiency in working with databases (SQL, NoSQL), designing schemas, optimizing queries, and ensuring data integrity. Security & Reliability: Familiarity with backend security best practices, observability tooling, and building fault-tolerant, highly available systems. Full-Stack Awareness: Working knowledge of front-end technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript/TypeScript) and modern frameworks (React, Vue, etc.) to collaborate effectively across the stack. Agile & Collaboration: Comfortable working in an Agile environment, excellent communication skills, and the ability to collaborate effectively within a team. \n $160,000 - $180,000 a year Compensation and benefits Competitive Compensation: Enjoy a highly competitive salary package based on your skills and experience.
