What matters here is deep backend thinking, clean API design, and the ability to operate confidently in a complex, business-logic-rich environment while contributing to reliable software delivered in fast iterations. If you're a backend engineer who is genuinely curious about expanding your skills across the full stack over time, this is a strong fit.

- Own and lead backend-focused strategic initiatives and architectural improvements.
- Debug and resolve production issues across the backend stack and infrastructure layer.
- Review peer code with a focus on correctness, performance, and maintainability.
- Write unit and integration tests; collaborate with the QA team thatwho owns API and end-to-end test coverage.
- Mentor junior engineers on backend fundamentals and system design.
- Contribute to scalable, reliable, and maintainable system architecture.

- Experience with Cloud Computing platforms (e.g., Amazon AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform).

Mindset:
- Strong ownership mindset – you take responsibility and consistently deliver reliable, well-thought-through solutions
- Product-oriented thinking – you build with long-term maintainability, scalability, and user impact in mind
- Continuous learning mindset and willingness to grow together with the team – actively developing your skills while contributing to the team’s collective knowledge
- Proactive and collaborative approach to problem-solving – you identify challenges early, communicate clearly, and work effectively with others to find solutions
- Commitment to quality, efficiency, and continuous improvement
