This role is ideal for someone who thrives on solving complex technical challenges, designing reliable backend systems, and driving innovation in software delivery.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, and maintain scalable backend services and microservices using Python (Golang experience is a plus).
• Build and enhance cloud-native applications on AWS, ensuring performance, reliability, and scalability.
• Collaborate with product teams to define architecture, implement new features, and optimize existing systems.
• Develop automation tools and internal frameworks to streamline deployment, monitoring, and operational efficiency.
• Apply software engineering best practices - including test-driven development (TDD), unit/integration testing, and comprehensive documentation.
• Contribute to the design and evolution of containerized systems using Kubernetes and Docker.
• Participate in system design reviews, technical discussions, and code reviews with global peers.

Required Skills & Experience:

• BS in Computer Science or related field (or equivalent practical experience).
• 8+ years of software engineering experience with a focus on large-scale system design and backend development.
• Strong proficiency in Python, with exposure to Golang and Bash scripting.
• Hands-on experience with Kubernetes, Docker, and AWS cloud services.
• Familiarity with modern CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitLab CI/CD, or similar) - not as a primary function, but as part of your software delivery process.
• Knowledge of infrastructure security, vulnerability management, or compliance frameworks (PCI, SOC2) is a plus.
• Excellent problem-solving, debugging, and communication skills within global, cross-functional teams.
