• You are proficient in backend programming languages like Java, Python or Go.  

• You have extensive experience in designing and implementing asynchronous, reliable and scalable systems in microservices environments.  

• You have a strong product mindset and genuine passion for user experience — you prioritize customer value and make data-driven decisions.  

• You are comfortable using AI-assisted development tools and apply engineering judgement to everything you ship.

• Clean, efficient, and well-tested code is your standard — you’re big on performance and maintainability.
