• Architect, build and maintain highly scalable backend services and cloud infrastructure.

• Produce high-quality, testable code and actively contribute to code reviews and pair programming.

• Drive platform-wide architectural improvements and technical decisions.

• Investigate production issues, optimize system performance and ensure high quality and availability.

• Mentor team members, share best practices and promote a culture of technical excellence.
