• Build robust, fault-tolerant integrations with 3rd party APIs that have little to no or poor documentation. • Create sophisticated background processing pipelines that are also fault-tolerant. • Develop mature APIs and microservices that adhere to RESTful principles that are used by paying clients in production. • Write strong unit and integration tests that ensure the code quality of your work. • Investigate client issues and service disruptions that require a deep dive. • Translate high-level requirements into a system design update and new data model while collaborating with clients and team members through requirements gathering and discovery. • Evaluate the pros and cons of high level architectural choices as well as lower level design decisions required within an existing application. • Work autonomously and make system design decisions that are resistant to change leveraging your experience. • Deeply invested in your work and client happiness. • Mentor junior to mid level engineers while also holding them accountable.

• Design, code, test, debug and document simple programs, scripts, and application components following established coding standards. • Define test conditions, create test cases, execute test scripts, and document results to ensure software functionality, stability, and compliance with requirements. • Support integrated applications by assisting with system integration testing, troubleshooting, and diagnosing simple issues to maintain stable operations. • Produce software builds from source code and support deployment and integration testing activities following standardized build and release procedures. • Collaborate with engineering, application support, and business stakeholders to stay aligned on project status, technical needs, and integration requirements. • Continuously develop technical skills and understanding of systems, tools, and engineering processes through training, feedback, and hands-on experience.

• Design and implement low-latency, high-throughput backend services using Golang • Analyze and improve existing systems by optimizing algorithms and data structures • Participate in architectural discussions and contribute to engineering best practices • Collaborate with DevOps teams to enable reliable deployment and monitoring • Mentor junior engineers through code reviews and knowledge sharing • Troubleshoot reported system issues using debugging techniques

• Build and maintain robust backend services and APIs that power both web and mobile applications using Node.js • Work closely with PM and design to build scalable products and services • Establish self as an owner of a particular component, feature, or system with expert end-to-end understanding • Successfully complete projects at large scope while maintaining a consistently high level of productivity • Take active ownership of DevOps responsibilities including CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure management, deployment automation, and system reliability • Leverage AI coding tools (Cursor, Codex, Claude Code) to accelerate development velocity and improve code quality
