- Design and deliver backend services, APIs, workers, and shared libraries that power cloud platform capabilities .
- Build and improve systems for orchestrating work across services, including job submission, execution tracking, status propagation, retries, cancellation, results, and operational visibility .
- Develop reliable asynchronous and event-driven systems using queues, messaging, background workers, and durable state .
- Work on distributed execution flows across platform services, including service-to-service communication, routing, acknowledgements, and failure recovery .
- Build and maintain cloud-native runtime infrastructure using containers, Kubernetes, deployment automation, and related platform tooling .
- Integrate platform services with persistence layers, event streams, REST APIs, and internal service contracts .
- Improve production reliability through metrics, tracing, structured logging, health checks, dashboards, alerting, runbooks, and incident follow-up .
