Graduate Backend Developer

WK Investment Partners is hiring a Graduate Backend Developer to work remotely from India. You'll work mostly on server-side code: services, queues, databases and the glue between them. Little to no frontend work. Our headquarters is in Anchorage, and about a third of the team works remotely from other countries. We hire in India through an employer of record, so this is a regular full-time job with local payroll and statutory benefits. Expect to work a schedule that overlaps with US Eastern business hours until about noon ET.

Key responsibilities:

• Add caching with Redis where it actually helps, and remove it where it doesn't
• Reduce cloud costs by right-sizing services and cleaning up unused resources
• Write integration and contract tests so API changes don't break consumers
• Tune slow queries, add indexes and read query plans

Requirements:

• Familiarity with Docker and CI/CD pipelines
• Hands-on experience with AWS, GCP or Azure services
• Proficiency in at least one of Go, Java, Kotlin, Python, C# or Node.js
• Strong SQL and relational data modelling skills
• Comfort reading logs, metrics and traces to debug problems in production
• Understanding of concurrency, transactions, idempotency and retries

What you get:

Salary: ₹13,00,000-₹15,50,000 per annum

• 24 days paid time off
• Annual learning budget
• Health insurance through our employer-of-record partner
• Wellness allowance
• Performance bonus
• Monthly internet allowance
• Company laptop
