As part of our Product Engineering organization, you will play a critical role in building scalable, high-performance backend systems that directly power customer-facing products and internal platforms. Product Engineering at our company is responsible for translating product vision into reliable, secure, and production-grade software solutions.
This role sits at the intersection of product strategy and technical execution — partnering closely with Product, Design, and cross-functional engineering squads to rapidly ship impactful features while maintaining long-term architectural integrity. You’ll help shape the technical foundation of our products, ensuring they are scalable, resilient, observable, and built with engineering excellence.

- Cloud Microservices: Architect and deploy scalable microservices in AWS/GCP/Azure using Kubernetes and modern DevOps practices.
- Data Pipelines: Build real-time and batch data pipelines, ensuring data accuracy, performance, and observability (EMR on EKS).
- Collaboration: Partner with cross-functional squad members to deliver features end-to-end, from concept to production.
- System Reliability: Optimize services for scalability, resilience, and high availability.
- Engineering Excellence: Contribute to architecture discussions, enforce coding standards, and drive best practices in CI/CD, testing, and monitoring.
- Security: Embed security and compliance into backend systems and data workflows.
Qualifications
- Strong proficiency in Scala, Go, or Java and Python (experience with multiple is a plus).
- Proven experience with distributed systems, microservices, and event-driven architectures.
- Fundamental understanding of computer networking (including Wi-Fi), operating systems, and databases.
- Hands-on expertise in cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and container orchestration (Kubernetes, Docker).
- Familiarity with data engineering (ETL pipelines, real-time streaming with Kafka/Pulsar, batch processing frameworks).
- Experience with SQL and NoSQL databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Cassandra, DynamoDB).
- Solid knowledge of CI/CD pipelines, testing frameworks, and observability tools (Grafana, Prometheus, ELK).
- Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to thrive in an agile, squad-based environment.
Nice To Have
- Functional programming experience in Scala.
- Experience with caching layers, distributed storage, and message queues.
- Familiarity with AI-powered developer tools such as ChatGPT, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, or similar to boost productivity.
- Contributions to open-source projects or personal projects showcasing backend innovation.
