Develop and integrate scalable, reliable GraphQL APIs.
Optimize systems for speed, scalability, and user experience across both frontend and backend.
Deploy containerized services and contribute to our CI/CD and infrastructure setup (AWS, Docker, Terraform).
Prototype and deliver new functionality quickly and iteratively based on product and player feedback.
Continuously improve code quality, system performance, and dev workflows.
You Should Ideally Have:
Strong TypeScript skills – proficient in TypeScript and its advanced features across both frontend and backend.
Backend expertise – solid experience with Node.js, PostgreSQL, and GraphQL in production environments.
