We're excited about you because you have...

  • B.S., M.S., or PhD. in Computer Science or equivalent
  • Prior experience (2+ years industry experience) working with backend tech stacks
  • Proficiency in using AI coding tools (e.g., Claude Code, Codex, Cursor) in the full software development lifecycle, including designing, generating code, testing, monitoring and releasing software
  • Ability to analyze and improve efficiency, scalability, and stability of various system resources
  • Experience with service oriented architecture, writing REST API’s, unit testing, and architectural design
  • Understanding of modern web stacks and architecture (HTTP, REST)
  • Experience with SQL and NoSQL databases and other technologies (e.g. Postgres, Redis, Elasticsearch, RabbitMQ)
