Requirements
- 5+ years in backend development, including meaningful time operating what you built in production.
- Strong, demonstrated experience with Go, scalable APIs, real-time data processing, and microservices.
- Hands-on experience running production services with Docker and Kubernetes.
- Experience with IaC tools like Terraform or CloudFormation.
- Working fluency with observability tooling (Datadog or comparable).
- On-call experience: triaging live incidents, mitigating impact, and writing postmortems.
- Strong SQL experience, plus databases like DynamoDB, Redis, or Elasticsearch.
- Proficiency with Git, shell scripting, and CI/CD.
- Fluency in English.
- Ability to work independently in ambiguous environments.
- BS/MS in Computer Science or equivalent experience.
Responsibilities
- Design, build, and optimize backend systems for real-time data processing and web services, treating reliability, latency, and cost as first-class constraints.
- Own SLIs and SLOs for Core API services, using error budgets to balance shipping velocity against stability.
- Build the observability that makes systems debuggable — metrics, structured logging, distributed tracing, and alerts.
- Share an on-call rotation, respond effectively to incidents, and lead blameless postmortems.
- Reduce operational toil through automation and close out incident action items.
- Run capacity planning, load testing, and performance tuning.
- Partner with cross-functional teams on integrations and mentor other engineers.
