  • Ensure continuous availability and operational readiness of data systems around the clock
  • Drive improvements in data efficiency, security, and accessibility across the stack
  • Translate business requirements into scalable technical architectures
  • Collaborate with engineering teams in the US, Singapore, and China to align on system design and implementation
  • Evolve backend APIs to meet changing customer demands through iterative development
  • Own service governance, deployment, and long-term maintainability of core services
  • Develop foundational components that strengthen the reliability of mission-critical systems
  • Adapt work hours as needed to support coordination across time zones

What You Bring

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related field
  • 8+ years of software engineering experience with a focus on distributed systems
  • Strong programming skills in Python, Golang, or Java—with Python preferred
  • Deep understanding of data structures, algorithms, and system design principles
  • Proven experience with message brokers like Kafka, RMQ, or SQS
  • Hands-on work with relational and NoSQL databases including MySQL, Postgres, MongoDB, Cassandra, Redis, and others
  • Track record building highly available, low-latency systems operating 24/7
  • Experience with microservices, API gateways, and observability tooling (logging, tracing, metrics)
  • Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS/GCP/Azure) and container orchestration via Kubernetes and Docker
  • Ability to lead technical direction, mentor junior engineers, and communicate complex concepts clearly
  • Strong analytical thinking and problem-solving skills with a focus on ownership and execution

Preferred Skills

  • Knowledge of authentication, authorization, and security best practices
  • Performance optimization for high-throughput systems
  • Experience with RPC frameworks such as gRPC/Protobuf or Thrift

Culture and Growth

We value ownership, transparency, and impact. Our environment emphasizes continuous learning, merit-based progression, and trust. There are no shortcuts—just meaningful work driven by ambition and accountability. You’ll grow through impact, not tenure, and be empowered to shape both technology and culture.

Benefits and Work Environment

  • Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package
  • Reimbursement for learning and professional development
  • Generous vacation and parental leave policies
  • Support for personal well-being and work-life balance
