  • Promote a data-driven strategy for making decisions
  • Propose ideas and test new solutions to improve the quality and performance of the system

  • Expertise in one or more programming languages (Go, Python, Node.js) and the ability to pick up new programming languages as needed
  • Experience with one or more cloud platforms (GCP or AWS)
  • Familiarity with one or more CDNs
  • Familiarity with concurrent, parallel, and distributed computing
  • Experience with Linux systems and shell scripting
  • Experience in Container Technologies (Kubernetes, Docker)
  • Basic competence with SQL
  • Solid CS background: algorithms and data structures, application of complexity theory, ability to formulate trade offs based on the problem you’re trying to solve
  • 4+ years building backend solutions
  • Ability to communicate effectively

Bonus Points:

  • Experience in Big Data Technologies (BigQuery, Snowflake, Kafka, Spark, Druid, DataFlow, DataProc)
  • Web development experience (JavaScript, HTML, CSS) to bring your backend work to life
  • Experience in delivering end to end video workflows
  • Experience in Data Science and Machine Learning
