We are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to join our platform team. You will design and build
high-throughput Python services using FastAPI and Django REST Framework, owning the full lifecycle
from schema design to production deployment. Our stack runs on AWS (ECS, RDS, ElastiCache), and
you will be expected to make sound architectural decisions around microservices decomposition,
event-driven messaging with Kafka, and relational data modeling in PostgreSQL.

Requirements: 4+ years of professional Python experience; deep knowledge of async programming
with asyncio; experience with containerization via Docker and orchestration with Kubernetes or
ECS; strong grasp of SQL query optimization, indexing strategies, and Redis caching patterns;
familiarity with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions or CircleCI) and observability tooling
(Datadog, OpenTelemetry). You take ownership of reliability — on-call rotations, runbooks, and
postmortems are part of the role.
