As a Backend Developer, you will be taking ownership of one or more domains of our product and will work closely with other developers and product designers in lean ways using cutting-edge technologies powering highly-available RESTful services and back-end systems.

• resolving most technical issues autonomously and designing well-organized code
• driving assigned requests to improve the codebase, such as migrating it to modern frameworks and adding missing tests
