• Debug and troubleshoot issues across the full stack, including production support and root cause analysis.
• Contribute to and help evolve our system architecture to improve scalability and maintainability.
• Utilize SQL and relational database tools to manage and persist application state.
• Make informed recommendations regarding the development of new code, refactoring of existing code, and integration of third-party/open-source frameworks.
• Participate in code reviews, providing constructive feedback while fostering a culture of learning and continuous improvement.
• Participate in scheduled on-call rotations to support our products in production.
  
  Requirements
• 3–5 years of professional experience in a software engineering role, preferably building and maintaining production web applications.
• Strong experience with Java for back-end development, including familiarity with frameworks such as Spring Boot.
• Proficiency in React and TypeScript (or similar front-end frameworks) for building scalable web applications.
• Solid understanding of data modeling, relational databases, and SQL.
• Strong grasp of data structures, client/server architecture, and the trade-offs involved in scaling applications.
• Experience using Git, modern IDEs, and build/deployment tools (e.g., Gradle, Docker, CI/CD pipelines).
• Demonstrated ability to debug complex issues, tune performance, and implement effective monitoring.
• Ability to break down complex technical problems and deliver high-quality solutions.
• Effective communication skills and a track record of collaboration with cross-functional teams.
• A proactive mindset and the ability to work independently while mentoring junior engineers as needed.
