Position Overview

Our team of 35+ backend developers are building and maintaining a modern, large-scale web infrastructure hosted on AWS. We use a number of languages and technologies including Python, PHP, Node.JS, Mongo, DynamoDB and MySQL.

Our platform is expanding globally, and with this expansion comes new challenges such as

distributed data storage, and processing and performance improvements.
