  • Troubleshoot and support production systems with a focus on learning from incidents and improving reliability

  • Continuously grow your knowledge of cloud-native engineering (AWS), container orchestration, CI/CD, observability, and developer tooling

Bring Your Passion, Do What you Love. Here's What We're Looking For:

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field, or equivalent experience

  • Foundational experience or coursework in backend software development, with proficiency in Golang, Python, or similar languages

  • Comfortable working with relational (PostgreSQL, MySQL) and non-relational (Redis, DynamoDB, etc.) databases

  • Exposure to cloud computing principles and services (especially AWS)

  • An interest in shared service or platform engineering and how infrastructure supports large-scale systems

  • Strong desire to learn and grow in a collaborative team environment

  • Ability to communicate effectively and ask thoughtful questions

  • Familiarity with Git, modern development workflows, and CI/CD principles

  • A proactive mindset with a willingness to jump in and try things, even if it means making (and learning from) mistakes

COMPLEMENTARY SKILLS & TECHNOLOGIES:

  • Service discovery, caching strategies, and configuration management

  • Observability tools like Prometheus, Grafana, or OpenTelemetry

  • Containerization (Docker) and orchestration (Nomad, Kubernetes)

  • Writing and maintaining internal libraries or developer tooling
