About this role
On the about seven-person Payment Platform team, this backend engineer develops the payment and points foundations for the GO taxi app. The systems connect external payment services, process payment data and award driver points. The team addresses reliability and availability, resilience to external outages, architecture improvement, operational burden, technical debt and payment fraud. The role covers planning, design, development and operation of new capabilities, and identifying issues in existing systems before proposing and implementing improvements. The backend environment includes Go microservices, gRPC, GraphQL, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis, BigQuery, AWS (EKS, S3, SNS and SQS), Kubernetes, Docker, Apache Airflow, Grafana and Sentry. Applicants need at least three years of server-side development and experience with high-traffic, data-intensive web services, API design and development, and systems using an RDB. They must have investigated incidents, analyzed causes and implemented recurrence prevention; contributed to team quality through technical design decisions or code reviews; and involved members of other teams in solving problems.
