• We are currently optimizing and scaling our next-generation Weather applications—a single app binary that supports multiple brands and platforms. If you love solving complex, high-traffic technical challenges, want to champion clean architecture, and are excited about using modern AI development tools like GitHub Copilot to accelerate real-world features—we want you on our team.

• Scale for Millions: Continuously optimize code for lightning-fast performance, low latency, and heavy traffic spikes, leveraging AWS and on-premise based infrastructure for backend service support.
• Modernize & Refactor: Keep our codebase pristine. You'll enjoy the balance of writing greenfield code from scratch and thoughtfully refactoring legacy systems, utilizing GitHub Copilot to speed up unit testing and boilerplates.
• Collaborate & Build: Champion engineering best practices, participate in code reviews, and collaborate across a modern ecosystem utilizing AWS, Go, Node.js, and Kubernetes.
• Roles, responsibilities and duties may evolve and change over time.
