Role Description We are looking for a Senior BackEnd (Java) Engineer to join Mal team. As our Backend Engineer, you'll design and build the infrastructure that powers our intelligence layer — from real-time APIs and large-scale distributed systems to AI-integrated services. You'll own the architecture behind how our models, data, and products connect — ensuring reliability, scalability, and performance at every layer. What you’ll be responsible for: - Build and scale backend systems and APIs in Java, with a focus on modular, type-safe design. - Architect services for large-scale distributed systems — high throughput, fault tolerance, and horizontal scalability. - Use Terraform or CloudFormation to define and deploy infrastructure as code. - Design event-driven architectures using SNS/SQS, EventBridge, and Kafka for resilient, scalable data flows. - Model and tune data in relational databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, or Aurora) with strong schema design, indexing, and query optimization. - Integrate AI capabilities — from LLM-based services to retrieval-augmented pipelines — safely and efficiently. - Design APIs that maintain context awareness and state across user sessions. - Implement CI/CD pipelines for automated testing, build, and zero-downtime deployment. - Embed observability — metrics, logs, and traces — into every service you deploy. - Collaborate with AI, data, and product teams to deliver intelligent, adaptive backend systems. Qualifications - 7+ years of experience in backend or cloud engineering, ideally in high-growth or AI-enabled environments. - Deep understanding of Java, the JVM, concurrency, and distributed design patterns. - Strong experience building large-scale distributed systems — handling high traffic, replication, and consistency trade-offs. - Hands-on expertise with event-driven systems, relational databases, and distributed system design. - Solid grasp of CI/CD principles, TDD/BDD, and infrastructure automation. - Familiarity with AI integrations — connecting APIs to LLMs or context-aware services. - Strong debugging, profiling, and optimization skills for cloud-native environments. - Pragmatic problem-solver with an eye for clean design, reusability, and long-term maintainability. Requirements - Bonus points if you have built retrieval-augmented or context-aware APIs integrating AI or data enrichment layers. - Contribute to open-source backend or infrastructure projects. - Bring experience in blue/green deployments, feature flags, or canary release strategies. - Have deep familiarity with observability stacks (OpenTelemetry, CloudWatch, structured logging). - Care about building infrastructure that's not only fast — but ethical, secure, and transparent. Benefits - 20 fully paid business days of vacation. - 15 fully paid sick leaves. - 11+ fully paid public holidays. - Compensation for health insurance and sport club membership. - Ability to work from home or remotely.
