About the Role

We are looking for a strong backend engineer with a product mindset to join our Search & Match team, building scalable systems that power discovery, ranking, and matching. You will use data and AI to improve relevance and outcomes for millions of users, and lead AI-driven initiatives from concept to production, owning them end to end. You will partner with engineers, product managers, and cross-functional teams to deliver impactful features and improve performance.

Responsibilities

  • Lead AI initiatives end to end, from identifying the opportunity and designing the solution through delivery, measurement, and iteration
  • Build, maintain, and enhance high-volume, scalable backend systems
  • Contribute to the evolution of our platform, including breaking down monolithic components into microservices
  • Partner with product managers to translate business requirements into technical solutions
  • Collaborate with internal teams to design, implement, and improve services
  • Write clean, maintainable, and well-tested code
  • Participate in code reviews and provide constructive feedback
  • Support production systems, troubleshoot issues, and improve reliability
  • Work with QA to ensure high-quality releases
  • Continuously identify opportunities to improve system performance and developer experience
  • Build systems that use data and AI to improve search relevance and matching quality

Requirements

  • 5–7+ years of professional software engineering experience
  • Proven experience using AI/ML in production (or applying AI tools and LLMs to real products) and driving those initiatives from start to finish
  • Demonstrated ownership: comfortable taking ambiguous problems and driving them to measurable outcomes
  • Strong experience with Java, Spring (Boot, MVC, Security), Kafka, Docker, SQL, and Hibernate
  • Experience building backend services using microservices architecture and designing scalable, distributed systems
  • Strong fundamentals in APIs, data modeling, and system design
  • Experience with relational and/or NoSQL databases and cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP)
  • Experience with caching (e.g., Elasticache) and search technologies (Solr / Elasticsearch)
  • Hands-on experience with AWS services (e.g., S3, Lambda, Step Functions, CDK, KMS)
  • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins) and modern development practices
  • Ability to collaborate effectively in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment
