Strong backend development experience with Node.js and TypeScript is preferred.
Senior-level experience with Java, Python, C++, C#, Go, or another object-oriented language may also be considered.
Strong knowledge of asynchronous and event-driven programming techniques.
Practical experience with distributed systems and communication or messaging tools such as Apache Kafka and gRPC.
Experience working with relational databases such as MySQL or PostgreSQL.
Familiarity with column-oriented platforms such as ClickHouse and NoSQL databases such as DynamoDB or MongoDB.
