Minimum Qualification Core Backend Expertise Deep proficiency in Java (JDK internals, concurrency, memory management, profiling, tuning). Strong background in building distributed systems (service‑to‑service communication, replication, consensus, failure handling). Experience with API design (REST/gRPC), serialization formats, and versioning strategies. Cloud & Infrastructure Hands‑on expertise with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP). Strong knowledge of containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes). Familiarity with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform or equivalent). Systems Engineering Familiarity with event‑driven architectures and streaming systems (Kafka, etc). Strong understanding of databases (SQL and NoSQL), transaction models, and distributed data management. Knowledge of caching strategies (Redis, Memcached, etc) and message queues. Observability & Reliability Experience with monitoring, logging, and tracing (DataDog, Prometheus, Grafana, ELK/EFK, OpenTelemetry, etc). Strong skills in debugging distributed systems in production. Security & Compliance Familiarity with secure coding practices, secrets management, and cloud security models. Knowledge of authentication/authorization frameworks (OAuth2, OIDC, JWT). Leadership & Communication Ability to lead design reviews, write technical proposals, and set engineering standards. Track record of mentoring other engineers on backend and infrastructure skills. Preferred Qualifications Experience in multi‑tenant SaaS architectures. Exposure to edge computing, IoT, or real‑time data processing. Background in performance benchmarking at scale. Prior experience in staff/principal engineer roles in a cloud‑native environment. Benefits and Pay Our headquarters are located in New York City’s Union Square.
