We’re looking for a Staff Java Backend Developer with deep Java expertise and a thorough understanding of distributed data processing systems from the inside out.

- Apply deep knowledge of distributed systems internals to guide architecture decisions and resolve complex challenges.

- Drive JVM performance strategy and optimization practices across the data platform.

- Collaborate with stakeholders and engineering teams to deliver impactful platform improvements.

- Mentor engineers and lead cross-team initiatives that raise the technical standard of the data platform.


What We Are Looking For:


- 7+ years of experience in IT roles.

- 5+ years of experience with Java as a primary language in distributed systems or data platform engineering.

- Expert knowledge of distributed systems architecture and large-scale data processing design.

- Deep experience with stream or batch processing internals and the frameworks that power them.

- Strong JVM performance expertise applied to production data processing systems.

- Demonstrated ability to lead cross-team technical initiatives and influence engineering direction.

- Apache ecosystem contribution experience is a plus.

- Advanced proficiency in English.


How we do make your work (and your life) easier:


- Remote Work.

- Excellent compensation in USD or your local currency if preferred

- Hardware and software setup for you to work from home.

- Flexible hours: create your own schedule.

- Paid parental leaves, vacations, and national holidays.

- Innovative and multicultural work environment: collaborate and learn from the global Top 1% of talent.

- Supportive environment with mentorship, promotions, skill development, and diverse growth opportunities.
