We are seeking a Backend Developer to support product development. Your primary focus will be developing all server-side logic, ensuring high performance and responsiveness to requests from the front-end. You will also create APIs to be integrated with front-end elements of our application, so a basic understanding of front-end technologies is necessary.
Responsibilities
Develop efficient and scalable backend code adhering to coding standards to meet business needs.
Enhance existing backend code for optimal performance and maintainability through refactoring and optimization.
Collaborate with front-end developers to seamlessly integrate user-facing elements with backend logic.
Develop and maintain unit tests, integration tests, and automated testing suites to ensure the reliability and stability of the backend codebase.
Expand software functionality by implementing new features while considering user feedback and compatibility.
Evaluate and prioritize feature requests based on feasibility, impact, and alignment with the software’s direction.
Translate user requirements into effective technical solutions, collaborating with cross-functional teams.
Contribute to the development of clear and comprehensive technical documentation that outlines the architecture, functionality, and usage of backend components.
Implement observability practices and proactive monitoring to ensure system health and performance.
Continuously learn, share knowledge, and stay updated with backend development trends and technologies.
Skills
The ideal candidate should have:
Demonstrated understanding of fundamental principles in system design to create scalable, reliable, and maintainable backend solutions.
Solid experience in backend development, preferably with Golang or Python.
Familiarity with ORM (Object Relational Mapping) libraries.
Strong understanding of API design principles, including GraphQL and REST, and the ability to create well-documented and efficient APIs for front-end and external services.
Ability to integrate backend systems with other components and external services.
