Role Type
Description
In love with Python and want to help build the AI-native backend behind the AI Commerce Operating System for global e-commerce brands?
Perform.AI is looking for an amazing team member to support us in software engineering! You have good web development skills, 4+ years of experience in Back-end development, you’re technically savvy, and have a nice grasp on coding techniques? Are you also interested in e-commerce and like to take on new challenges? Help us drive Perform.AI’s growth and join our team! We are looking for you!
WE NEED YOU ON OUR TEAM!
- As a Backend Engineer, you will be building scalable systems with microservices. You will write focused, high-performance codebases that are small and do one thing well, contributing to the resilience and scalability of our service ecosystem.
- Operating at this level means working in a complex environment involving high-frequency service communication, advanced automation, and a vast landscape of metrics. We choose microservices for technology freedom, resilience, and scalability.
- Such a system isn’t easy, especially with a focus on good engineering practices. But that is ok. We are here for people who want to operate at the next level in their careers.
WHAT YOU SHOULD BRING ALONG!
Must-have Requirements:
- Core Languages: Solid knowledge of Backend, preferably Python or Scala. We are open to experts in other languages (Java, Go, Rust…) who are eager to master our stack.
- Experience: 4+ years of professional experience in Software Development with a focus on Backend systems.
- System Scaling: Knowledge of scaling practices such as in-memory databases, load balancing, and caching.
- Database Proficiency: Comfortable with both SQL and NoSQL databases.
- Communication Protocols: Comfortable with RESTful and real-time communication protocols.
- Engineering Mindset: Clear understanding of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) and design patterns. Passionate about code quality, productivity, and maintainability.
Nice-to-have Requirements:
- Infrastructure: Familiarity with the AWS stack to get the most out of cloud infrastructure.
- Middleware: Hands-on know-how of any Message Queue (MQ) as a critical communication hub. If you start one today, that still counts.
- Data Engineering: An eagerness to contribute to the data engineering process in an AI-first environment.
- Full-stack Exposure: Wide exposure to multiple technology stacks is an advantage — we love full-stack engineers.
- English Communication: Good spoken and written English to collaborate smoothly with international teams and stakeholders.
