  • Deep experience with multi-tenant SaaS architectures and event-driven systems
  • Skilled in building real-time APIs (GraphQL, REST)
  • Proven ability to build integrations and workflow-based systems from the ground up
  • Familiar with PostgreSQL and strong understanding of software design patterns
  • Exposure to microservices, monoliths, and AWS cloud infrastructure
  • Comfortable using modern AI-enhanced IDEs (Cursor, Windsurf, IntelliJ Junie, etc.)
  • Experience in high-growth, fast-paced startup environments
  • Values-driven mindset and a strong sense of ownership

Bonus Points:

  • Fintech or strong SaaS background
  • Exposure to frontend stacks (Next.js, TypeScript)
  • Interest or experience with LLMs and agentic AI applications
