  • Strong programming skills in Java or similar backend languages
  • Understanding of system performance, scalability, and observability in high-traffic environments
  • Strong communication skills and a product-oriented mindset—able to understand the “why” behind technical work and collaborate effectively with cross-functional partners
  • Demonstrated ownership and initiative in identifying opportunities for improvement and driving them from conception to implementation
