The posting

We’re seeking a highly skilled, execution-focused Senior Backend Engineer with a minimum of 5 years of experience to join our team. This role demands hands-on expertise in building and scaling distributed systems, strong proficiency in Java, and deep knowledge of cloud-native infrastructure. You will be expected to design robust backend services, optimize performance across storage and caching layers, and enable seamless integrations using modern messaging and CI/CD pipelines.

You’ll be working in a high-scale, high-impact environment where reliability, speed, and efficiency are paramount. If you enjoy solving complex engineering challenges and have a passion for distributed systems, this is the right role for you.

Responsibilities

  • Design, develop, and maintain distributed backend systems at scale.
  • Write high-performance, production-grade code in Java.
  • Architect and optimize storage systems, ensuring efficient query performance and scalable data models.
  • Implement caching strategies to reduce latency and improve system throughput.
  • Build and manage services leveraging AWS cloud infrastructure.
  • Develop resilient messaging pipelines using Kafka (or equivalent) for real-time data processing.
  • Define and streamline CI/CD pipelines, ensuring rapid and reliable deployment cycles.
  • Collaborate with product managers, frontend engineers, and DevOps to deliver end-to-end solutions.
  • Monitor system performance, identify bottlenecks, and apply proactive fixes.
  • Drive best practices in software engineering, testing, and code reviews.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience in backend engineering, with deep hands-on coding experience.
  • Strong proficiency in Java and familiarity with modern frameworks.
  • Proven track record in building scalable distributed systems.
  • Hands-on expertise with AWS services (e.g., EC2, S3, Lambda, DynamoDB, RDS).
  • Solid understanding of messaging systems like Kafka, RabbitMQ, or similar.
  • Strong grasp of query performance optimization and storage system design.
  • Experience with caching solutions (Redis, Memcached, etc.).
  • Familiarity with CI/CD tools (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, etc.).
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to thrive in fast-paced environments.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills, with a proactive mindset.

Benefits

  • Best in class salary: We hire only the best, and we pay accordingly.
  • Proximity Talks: Meet other designers, engineers, and product geeks — and learn from experts in the field.
  • Keep on learning with a world-class team: Work with the best in the field, challenge yourself constantly, and learn something new every day.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
