- Minimum of 3 years software development experience; using 2 or more server side programming languages. Preferably Perl, Java, Python, Scala, C++ etc.
- Demonstrable experience with MySQL and PostgreSQL or similar relational databases
- Previous experience with distributed systems
- Familiarity with Javascript ecosystems (Node.js, Typescript, JSX)
- Familiarity with mobile app development & developing mobile app backends
