You should feel comfortable in a fast paced, growing, and nimble environment, keeping in mind that everything we do is to better the lives of our users!

  • Strong fundamental understanding of relational Databases (Postgresql, Mysql).
  • Proven experience in designing and developing scalable, high-performance web applications.
  • Strong understanding of software architecture and design patterns.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and a proactive approach to identifying and addressing challenges.
  • Proven experience on building backend services with high availability and scalability requirements.
  • Able to model and design intuitive and scalable schemas.
  • Experience with agile/scrum development methodologies.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams.
  • Passion for technology and a continuous learner mindset.
  • Motivated to leverage new AI tools and technologies.
  • Someone who isn't afraid of responsibility, a good sense of humor and a down-to-earth personality.
