Ideally you will be:
- 3+ years of experience working on large-scale backend systems
- Experience writing high-performance applications in Java or another JVM language
- A growth mindset and the desire to learn quickly through taking on challenges, reflecting on outcomes, and incorporating feedback
- Passionate about optimization, code quality, and problem solving
- Bonus: experienced with Apache Lucene, vector databases, or high-throughput web services
Success Measures
- In 3 months you'll have a solid high-level understanding of what our team does and how we operate
- You'll have contributed to the development of an existing project and completed several small improvements or bug fixes
- In 6 months you'll be reviewing code and project designs, and be an active participant in team meetings
