2. Distributed Systems & Scalability

• Design and maintain distributed systems capable of handling high throughput and large-scale operations.
• Implement inter-service communication patterns (REST, event-driven, message queues, pub/sub).
• Ensure system resiliency through redundancy, graceful degradation, and autoscaling strategies.

3. Asynchronous & Event-Driven Architecture

• Build async workflows, background tasks, and pipeline services leveraging asyncio or async frameworks.
• Develop event-driven components including producers, consumers, and event processors.
• Optimize I/O-heavy operations to maximize concurrency and throughput.

4. Data Storage, Pipelines & Caching

• Design relational schemas, write optimized SQL queries, and work with PostgreSQL performance tuning (indexes, partitions, query planning).
• Implement caching strategies, rate limiting, distributed locks, and session storage using Redis.
• Build data validation pipelines and compliance-driven data flows ensuring data correctness and auditability.

5. Security, Reliability & Observability

• Implement authentication, authorization, encryption, and secure API practices.
• Build monitoring, alerting, metrics, and tracing systems using modern observability tools.
• Diagnose production issues, identify bottlenecks, and drive long-term fixes and improvements.

6. Code Quality & Technical Leadership

• Conduct detailed code reviews and ensure engineering best practices across the team.
• Participate in technical roadmap planning, architectural discussions, and system design decisions.
• Mentor junior and mid-level engineers; drive a culture of technical excellence and ownership.

Required Qualifications

• 6+ years backend engineering experience.
• 3+ years building microservices or distributed systems.
• Strong expertise in Python and frameworks like FastAPI (or Flask/Django with async exposure).
• Deep understanding of async I/O, concurrency models, and asynchronous programming in Python.
• Strong experience with PostgreSQL (schema design, advanced queries, optimization).
• Hands-on experience with Redis for caching, queues, session management, and distributed patterns.
• Experience with event-driven architectures, message processing, or streaming systems.
• Solid understanding of system design, scalability principles, and API lifecycle management.
• Experience working with CI/CD pipelines, containerization (Docker), and cloud environments.

• End-to-end ownership of new feature development, from design, through implementation, testing, deployment, and maintenance in production
• Translating of high-level requirements and end-user use cases into design proposals, including integration with external services and constraints of underlying service infrastructure
• Maintaining constant focus on scalability, performance and robustness of a feature, on the top of base functional implementation
• Designing and implementing logging, monitoring and alerting functions as core parts of overall software solution
• Documenting your own work and design solutions
• Decomposing complex features into smaller, short-term deliverable tasks
• Managing priorities of multiple tasks, providing up-to-date estimates for a milestone delivery

• 5+ of industry experience in technical leadership roles
• Solid knowledge of Go-Lang, Python, C/C++, SQL, shell scripting and Linux operating environment.
• End-to-end experience in design and development of highly scalable enterprise and cloud data products.
• Ability to challenge and redefine existing architectural fundamentals in order to provide next level of performance and scalability; ability to foresee post-deployment challenges.
• Hands-on experience with design and troubleshooting of scalable web services, advanced file systems, geographic replication, distributed databases and modern operating systems.
• Experience with modern DevOps technologies such as Docker and container orchestration, service deployment, monitoring and scaling
• Ability to work with multi-cultural, globally distributed teams to a common unifying product vision and closely coordinate with cross-functional teams in different time-zones.
• Passion to deliver enterprise-grade products to customers and to continuously work with engineering team to refine the product in the field.
