  • Help modernize the way we work—such as making developer onboarding more seamless, helping build out our automation, implementing chaos testing, etc.
  • Design, develop, test, and maintain software that delivers exceptional shopping experiences.
  • Construct design documents and documentation to aid in maintenance and code reuse.

  • Professional experience with GCP, AWS or Azure
  • Experience working with RDMS & NoSQL databases at scale
  • Strong familiarity with caching frameworks and tools like Redis, including an understanding of caching trade-offs such as cache invalidation and cache consistency.
  • You have worked with observable systems that track important metrics, investigated, and addressed issues with performance, scalability, and maintainability
  • You're an emerging leader and look forward to owning initiatives and architectural changes.
  • You're looking for a place to land where you can make a difference.
  • You're passionate about building rock solid software and opinionated about what good looks like.
  • You believe in delivering incremental value rapidly with continuous integration and deployments. You swear by short lead times and cycle times. You've used and built CI/CD pipelines and now wouldn't work any other way.
  • You have a hunger to learn and are open to change, which is evident in your constant hunt to improve yourself, our team, and our products.
  • Our stack includes Java, Spring Boot, CloudSQL, and Google Cloud Platform
We are hoping to find someone with as many of the following as possible:
  • Ability to craft a full-stack solution which involves solutioning at the BFF/Middleware/Orchestration layer, and BE layer.
  • Solid experience building and maintaining RESTful APIs
  • An understanding of token-based authentication
  • CI/CD experience (similar experience to one of GitLab IC, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, etc.)
  • Ability to configure a Dockerfile for use in a build pipeline or for local development.
  • You are opinionated about what it takes to produce great software but remain receptive to others' ideas.
  • You care about ownership. You proactively seek out bugs and fix them. Occasionally, when bugs find you, you don't sweep them under the rug.
  • You are experienced with software estimation, often confronted with complexity and uncertainty.
  • You make decisions based on data. You are versed with tools to measure every aspect of the application.
  • You have developed large applications in a team environment.
  • You are not afraid of changes. Armed with excellent refactoring techniques, you work effectively with legacy code.
  • You are a good communicator. You can present complicated solutions to non-technical audiences in a simple and logical way.
