- Work in cloud environments (Gcloud Platform / AWS) and apply best practices in distributed systems.
- Write high-performance, maintainable code.
- Manage SQL/NoSQL databases and caching layers (MySQL, Redis, MongoDB).
- Knowledge of AI tools and frameworks.
Requirements
What We’re Looking For:
- 2 years of hands-on experience in backend or server-side development, ideally at scale.
- Solid understanding of cloud infrastructure, distributed systems, and microservices.
- Experience with scalability, monitoring, and server reliability practices.
- Familiarity with AI-powered features or interest in applying machine learning to backend use cases.
- Ability to work independently, take ownership, and design clean, reliable solutions.
