What We’re Looking For:

• Staff Engineer mindset with proven ability to lead architecture design, solve complex challenges, and drive projects end-to-end.

• 5+ years of professional experience in backend development (preferably more), demonstrating senior-level ownership and leadership.
• Strong background in system design and architecture, building scalable, maintainable, and reliable systems.
• Solid understanding of data-driven design, including RESTful APIs and microservices.
