🙌 About You

You’ve built and shipped software—maybe a product, a service, or a tool used by real users. You’re comfortable working with microservices, API-driven architectures, and modern backend technologies. You take initiative, asking the right questions to ensure you're building the right solutions, and you care about clean, maintainable code that performs well in production.

You balance ownership and collaboration, knowing when to take charge of a project and when to work closely with your teammates. You bring ideas to the table and welcome feedback, always striving for the best technical and business outcomes. Whether you’re looking to deepen your expertise or expand your scope, you thrive in an environment where learning and impact go hand in hand. You understand that engineering excellence goes beyond development—you actively monitor quality, improve observability, and ensure that systems remain scalable and maintainable

If this sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you! 🚀
