About You

• Deep understanding of systems architecture, APIs, and infrastructure
• Experience working with relational databases (Postgres preferred) and designing efficient queries.
• Proficiency with writing useful tests and utilizing monitoring tools, and a well thought-out philosophy about the place of monitoring and testing in a frontend codebase
• Familiarity with infrastructure as code tools (Terraform preferred) and deploying applications to public cloud providers (AWS, Google Cloud, etc.).
• Strong testing and CI/CD practices.
• You take ownership of your work with a leadership mindset, demonstrating initiative, accountability, and the ability to drive projects forward independently.
• Proven ability to work independently on a remote-first team, with experience in asynchronous communication. Top-notch communication skills are essential.
