• Develop robust capabilities for partner integrations, data ingestion, and reliable communication.
• Ensure system resilience, scalability, security, and observability using logs, metrics, and tracing.
• Collaborate with product managers, data specialists, and engineering teams to deliver incremental business value.

• Hands-on experience developing cloud-native services on AWS.
• Experience deploying and operating services on Kubernetes or similar container platforms.
• Solid understanding of Kafka or comparable event-streaming/messaging technologies.
• Extensive experience designing and integrating HTTP APIs with external systems.
• Deep understanding of distributed systems fundamentals (e.g., idempotency, retries, rate limiting) and CI/CD pipelines.
• Strong problem-solving skills with a collaborative, communicative approach.

Nice to Have

• Experience with marketplaces, travel, e-commerce, or external partner integrations.
• Familiarity with data transformation pipelines, schema evolution, and infrastructure-as-code.
