Design, build, and operate backend and fullstack production systems using Java, Spring, Node.js, and React. Own service reliability through observability, SLIs/SLOs, on-call support, incident response, postmortems, capacity planning, and load testing. Contribute to infrastructure as code, collaborate with platform teams, participate in architecture and code reviews, and mentor junior engineers.

About the RoleWe're looking for a senior engineer who can design, build, and operate production systems end-to-end. You'll work across our core stack building features and services, while also owning the reliability, observability, and performance of what you ship. You won't be handing your code off to a separate ops team — you'll be on-call for it, instrumenting it, and improving it based on how it behaves in production.
What You'll Do
- Design and build backend/fullstack features across Java 21, Spring/Spring boot, JPA/Hibernate, NodeJS, React/React Native
- Instrument services with logging, metrics, and tracing (e.g., Splunk, Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, OpenTelemetry) as a standard part of development, not an afterthought
- Define and monitor SLIs/SLOs for the services you own; use error budgets to guide prioritization between feature work and reliability work
- Participate in an on-call rotation; respond to and resolve production incidents affecting your services
- Write and maintain postmortems/RCAs, and drive follow-up fixes to prevent recurrence
- Contribute to infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, CloudFormation, etc.) for the systems you build
- Perform capacity planning and load testing for services ahead of scale events
- Collaborate with platform/infra teams on shared tooling, but take primary ownership of your service's health
- Participate in code reviews, architecture discussions, and mentor junior engineers
What We're Looking For
- 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, with deep expertise in Java 21, Spring/Spring boot, JPA/Hibernate, NodeJS, React/React Native
- Demonstrated experience owning services in production — not just writing code, but debugging, scaling, and maintaining it live
- Comfort with observability tooling and reading dashboards/logs/traces to diagnose issues under pressure
- Experience with incident response processes (on-call, paging, postmortems)
- Working knowledge of cloud infrastructure with AWS and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) — enough to reason about deployment and scaling, even if you're not a dedicated platform engineer
- Strong communication skills — you can explain a production issue to both engineers and stakeholders
- Bonus: experience with CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code, or chaos engineering practices
What This Role Is Not
- This is not a dedicated SRE/DevOps/Platform Engineering role. You won't be building the observability platform itself or managing infrastructure for other teams — you'll be a strong practitioner of reliability engineering within your own feature work.
