Own backend systems end-to-end, from design and implementation to
production reliability and long-term evolution.
Design scalable, fault-tolerant, and low-latency backend architectures for real
time and event-driven use cases.
Lead system design decisions including data models, service boundaries, async
workflows, and scalability strategies.
Build and operate high-throughput services handling millions of events, requests,
or messages per day.
Own reliability metrics such as p95/p99 latency, uptime, error budgets, and
participate in incident resolution and post-mortems.
Drive architectural migrations including monolith to microservices and
synchronous to asynchronous flows.
Collaborate with product, frontend, and data teams to translate complex
requirements into robust backend solutions.
Improve developer productivity by contributing to internal platforms, tooling,
CI/CD pipelines, and coding standards.
Mentor engineers through design reviews, code reviews, and technical guidance
without direct people management.
Proactively identify performance bottlenecks, cost inefficiencies, and scalability
risks and resolve them at the system level.
