In this role you will

• Handle on-call for services the team owns and lead incident follow-ups.

• Instrument services with metrics, structured logs and OpenTelemetry traces.
• Containerize services with Docker and deploy them to Kubernetes or ECS.
• Design and build REST and gRPC APIs in Go, Java or Python.
• Write integration and contract tests so API changes don't break consumers.

Minimum qualifications

• 3+ years of backend development experience in a production environment.
• Clear written communication, including design docs.
• Experience designing and versioning HTTP APIs.
• Working knowledge of message queues or streaming platforms.
