## Job Description

## What you will do

- Build and own Python backend services and RESTful APIs handling millions of customer requests per day
- Build third-party integrations with major conference providers using their SDKs
- Own customer-facing aspects of the product end to end, from design through production operation
- Drive architectural decisions that span both areas — data modeling, service boundaries, performance optimization
- Help define and promote engineering best practices: design, documentation, code review, monitoring, observability
- Mentor and train engineers across the team, raising the technical bar in both domains
- Act as a technical point of contact across teams and personas, translating ambiguous product needs into concrete systems

## What you bring

- Strong hands-on experience in both Java and Python in production settings (deep expertise in one and working proficiency in the other, with a track record of ramping fast on new stacks)
- 3+ years building distributed systems and microservices at scale
- 3+ years with streaming data platforms (Kafka strongly preferred)
- 4+ years of cloud experience (AWS/GCP) — a must
- Solid experience with both SQL and NoSQL stores (Mongo, Elasticsearch)
- Strong grasp of RESTful API design standards and event-driven architecture
- Experience with CI/CD, package management, and release cycles
- Strong architectural design skills while remaining deeply hands-on
- Excellent communication skills in English and the interpersonal range to collaborate cross-functionally
- Demonstrated leadership: mentoring engineers, driving projects independently, taking initiative without being asked

## Bonus points

- Experience with CRM systems (Salesforce, Microsoft Dynamics) and integrating data services with them
- Apache Kafka ecosystem depth (Kafka Streams, Connect)
- Spring Boot microservices deployed to cloud
- Experience with conferencing platform SDKs (Zoom, Teams, Webex, Google Meet)
