• Build and deploy cloud-native applications leveraging AWS (or equivalent cloud platforms like GCP/Azure)
  
• Collaborate closely with product and data teams to embed new capabilities and signal intelligence into our applications
  
• Work on backend systems and, optionally, data pipelines (Python experience a plus)
  

You should apply if you have most of this:

• 5+ years of hands-on Java development experience
  
• Strong experience with Spring Framework and Spring Boot
  
• Solid understanding of cloud platforms (preferably AWS) and how to design, deploy, and operate scalable cloud-based applications
  
• Knowledge of core AWS services (S3, DynamoDB, Lambda, EKS) or equivalent GCP/Azure components
  
• Strong grasp of designing for performance, scalability, reliability, and observability
  
• Experience building API backend services and integrating with distributed systems
  
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills
  

Bonus points:

• Experience with Python, especially for data pipelines or automation
  
• Familiarity with Databricks, Spark, or Delta tables
  
• Knowledge of SQL and database fundamentals
  
• Experience with messaging or streaming frameworks (Kinesis, Kafka, SQS, etc.)
  
• Understanding of Linux command line tools and DevOps concepts
