The role

We're looking for a senior engineer who enjoys both designing systems and writing the code that runs them. You'll shape the architecture of our backend services, make key technical decisions around scalability and data, and stay close to the code as a hands-on contributor. You'll work with high-throughput, distributed systems where concurrency, consistency, and performance really matter, and you'll help raise the engineering bar across the team.

What you'll do

  • Design, build, and evolve backend services in Java (and Go where it fits), from architecture through to production.
  • Define and drive architectural decisions for distributed, horizontally scalable systems.
  • Build event-driven systems on Kafka and design data flows that handle eventual consistency correctly.
  • Model and optimize data across PostgreSQL, Redis, and analytical stores such as ClickHouse or Apache Doris.
  • Write efficient, safe concurrent code, and review others' concurrency designs.
  • Profile and tune applications for latency, throughput, and memory usage, including JVM and garbage collection tuning.
  • Build and run services on AWS in close collaboration with our DevOps team.
  • Mentor other engineers through code reviews, design discussions, and pairing.
