- Design and develop RESTful APIs and backend services that other teams and partners can rely on.
- Build scalable and resilient distributed systems, including patterns such as circuit breakers, rate limiting, and timeout budgeting to keep services stable under load.
- Optimise API performance and latency using techniques such as concurrency, connection pooling, caching, and load balancing.
- Design secure authentication and authorisation mechanisms, including JWT and OAuth2 based flows.
- Maintain data consistency across services and databases, including handling failures in multi-step or multi-database operations and designing APIs to be safely retried (idempotency).
- Collaborate closely with frontend developers, architects, and DevOps engineers as part of a small, hands-on delivery team, working alongside a lead architect rather than owning a whole system solo.
- Write automated tests (unit and integration) and use monitoring and logging tools to troubleshoot issues in production.
- Conduct code reviews and mentor other engineers.
- Contribute to architectural decisions and engineering best practices.
Minimum Qualifications
- 6+ years of hands-on backend development experience (be ready to talk through specific projects and your individual contribution to each).
- Strong experience building and operating enterprise APIs, including performance tuning, concurrency handling, circuit breakers, and rate limiting.
- Experience with Golang, .NET, Node.js, Java, or similar backend technologies (Golang experience is well regarded for this engagement).
- Solid understanding of relational database fundamentals (ACID properties), handling consistency across multiple services or databases, and avoiding common performance issues such as the N+1 query problem.
- Strong knowledge of API security (OAuth2, JWT, OpenID Connect) and idempotent API design.
- Experience with SQL and NoSQL databases.
- Experience with cloud platforms (AWS preferred for this project; GCP or Azure also considered), including container-based deployment (Docker, ECS, or Kubernetes) and CI/CD pipelines.
- Understanding of microservices, including gRPC and REST-based service-to-service communication.
- Experience writing automated tests (unit and integration) and using observability tools (e.g. Datadog, New Relic, CloudWatch) to diagnose issues.
- Comfortable working as part of a small, collaborative delivery team alongside a lead architect and other engineers, not as a sole developer.
- Professional English communication skills (spoken and written) are mandatory.
- Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to work independently in a remote consulting environment.
