Backend Engineer

This mid-level Backend Engineer role requires a solid foundation in backend development principles, supported by a bachelor's degree indicating a strong educational background. Candidates should have practical experience in designing, developing, and maintaining server-side logic, ensuring high performance and responsiveness to requests from the front-end. Proficiency with backend programming languages such as Java, Python, Ruby, or Node.js is typically expected, along with experience working with databases, both relational (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL) and NoSQL (e.g., MongoDB, Redis). Familiarity with RESTful API design and integration is important for enabling communication between different parts of the system. Knowledge of version control systems, particularly Git, is essential for collaborative development. Experience with cloud platforms (such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud) and containerization technologies like Docker and Kubernetes may be advantageous. Understanding of software development methodologies including Agile or Scrum is beneficial for efficient project management and delivery. The role demands strong problem-solving skills, the ability to write clean, maintainable code, and a focus on scalability and security best practices. Mid-level experience suggests the candidate should be capable of working independently on assigned tasks while collaborating effectively with cross-functional teams, including front-end developers, QA engineers, and product managers. Overall, this position suits a backend developer with a balanced mix of theoretical knowledge and practical application, ready to contribute to robust backend systems in a dynamic development environment.
