About the role

As a Senior Backend Developer in the Architecture & Engineering team, you will build and maintain the technical infrastructure that enables our company to operate globally.

You will act as the crucial bridge translating business requirements into scalable technical deliverables. We operate an event-driven architecture heavily utilizing Go and GCP (Cloud Run, Pub/Sub, Cloud Tasks). Operational excellence is critical to our team; you will help us automate operational hurdles and set-up alerts and dashboards using tools like Grafana. Looking forward, this role will be pivotal in modernizing our technical architecture and spearheading the adoption of AI and agentic development within our software development life cycle.
