What will you do?<\/p>\n
Technical Leadership<\/p>\n
\tExperience \/ a keen interest in mentorship, teamwork and collaboration
\n\tSenior Developers need extensive experience and\/or understanding of designing, developing and testing distributed, high-volume and highly reliable software. Business and operational awareness, as well as experience with cloud-based infrastructure is also required.<\/p>\n
Engineering & Operational Excellence<\/p>\n
\tUnderstanding of scalability, robustness, operational visibility and agility
\n\tUnderstanding of distributed systems and designing these solutions
\n\tExperience working on projects involving the design and implementation of scalable systems
\n\tKnowledge of services like AWS VPC, Auto Scaling, serverless computing, storage (EBS, S3), containers, DNS, etc) is preferred yet not a prerequisite.\u00a0 All experience with relevant Cloud-based technologies are beneficial in this role
\n\tUnderstanding of \/ experience in monitoring, metrics, visibility, health, fault tolerance
\n\tExperience with \/ understanding of load balancing and health checking
\n\tExperience with \/ understanding of APIs, auth
\n\tExperience with \/ understanding of databases and persistence
\n\tExperience with \/ understanding of scalable architecture for systems implementation<\/p>\n
Qualification and Experience<\/p>\n
\tSenior Developers need extensive experience and\/or understanding of designing, developing and testing distributed, high-volume and highly reliable software. Business and operational awareness, as well as experience with cloud-based infrastructure is also required.<\/p>\n
Programming Languages & Coding<\/p>\n
\tDespite our language agnostic approach, proficiency in languages used in full-stack \/ back-end Software Development (Python, Java, C++ etc for example) is required
\n\tProficiency at reading, reviewing, understanding code
\n\tAbility to articulate language differences, implementation and the build & execution process: For example strongly vs weakly typed, static vs dynamic, compiled vs interpreted.<\/p>\n
Data Structures, Algorithms & Algorithmic Problem Solving<\/p>\n
\tAbility to articulate the pros \/ cons of relevant data structures for the use of minimum memory space and execution in the shortest possible time.\u00a0 This includes situations in which a data structure would be applicable, and why
\n\tAbility to suggests possible \/ relevant algorithms when developing and optimising solutions for time and space complexity. This includes the ability to discuss options and trade-offs; also in instances where scope increases and solutions have to adapt.<\/p>\n
