- 5+ years of backend engineering experience, with strong proficiency in Java and ideally exposure to PHP; experience with Go, C#, or Python is also valued.
- Experience building and maintaining large-scale, high-volume systems — with a solid understanding of distributed systems, queuing, caching, concurrency, fault tolerance, and scalability.
- A background in financial systems, payments, or data-intensive applications is a big plus — you understand what it means to build systems where correctness, reliability, and performance are non-negotiable.
- End-to-end ownership mindset — you don't just execute tasks; you take initiative, shape ideas with a product-first approach, and think in terms of outcomes for merchants and the business.
- Strong communication skills, with the ability to work effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders across domains.
