About the role

Bright Vision Technologies is a forward-thinking software development company dedicated to building innovative solutions that help businesses automate and optimize their operations. We leverage cutting-edge technologies to create scalable, secure, and user-friendly applications. As we continue to grow, we’re looking for a skilled Senior Backend Developer to join our dynamic team and contribute to our mission of transforming business processes through technology.

Responsibilities

  • Design and build internal platform services and shared infrastructure that hundreds of engineers depend on every day, with explicit focus on developer experience and operational ergonomics
  • Architect high-throughput, latency-sensitive backend platforms capable of sustaining very high request volumes with predictable, well-bounded tail latency
  • Build durable, replayable event-processing pipelines and asynchronous job execution platforms that other product teams compose to ship features faster
  • Develop caching, rate-limiting, and request-shaping layers that protect upstream systems and enable safe scaling under bursty workloads
  • Develop platform abstractions, SDKs, and paved-road libraries that codify best practices and let product teams consume capabilities without re-implementing them
  • Establish robust observability, SLOs, and capacity-planning practices for platform services, raising the operational bar across the organization
  • Drive multi-region, fault-tolerant, and geo-distributed designs with rigorous attention to availability, durability, and graceful degradation under failure
  • Lead incident response for high-impact platform issues, conduct blameless post-mortems, and drive durable engineering improvements that prevent recurrence
  • Define and enforce platform-wide standards around API design, schema evolution, deployment, and backward-compatibility guarantees
  • Optimize platform performance through careful profiling, data-driven tuning, and algorithmic improvements that move the needle on throughput and cost
  • Partner with infrastructure, security, and SRE teams to ensure platform services meet enterprise reliability, compliance, and security obligations
  • Mentor mid-level engineers and lead architectural discussions across teams, helping the broader organization grow in distributed-systems maturity
  • Produce clear technical design documents, decision records, and operational runbooks that make the platform legible to future maintainers
  • Continuously evaluate emerging platform technologies, open-source projects, and architectural patterns for strategic adoption

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a closely related technical discipline
  • Six or more years of professional backend or platform engineering experience
  • Demonstrated track record building and operating internal platforms or shared services consumed by multiple engineering teams
  • Advanced proficiency in at least one major backend language such as Java, Go, Scala, Rust, or modern C++
  • Strong, hands-on expertise designing distributed systems with rigorous attention to consistency, availability, latency, and failure-mode behavior
  • Deep understanding of high-throughput messaging, streaming, and event-driven architectures using technologies such as Kafka, Pulsar, or NATS
  • Proven experience leading multi-quarter platform initiatives across teams, including stakeholder management and technical decision-making
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, including ability to author crisp technical design documents and present trade-offs clearly
  • Demonstrated ability to mentor engineers and shape engineering culture through code review, design review, and onboarding contributions

Qualifications

  • Experience operating Kubernetes-based platforms or contributing to internal developer-platform initiatives at scale
  • Contributions to widely-used open-source platform or infrastructure projects
  • Familiarity with control-plane / data-plane patterns, service mesh internals, or workflow-orchestration engines
  • Experience designing platform APIs with strong backward-compatibility and versioning guarantees
  • Public technical writing, conference talks, or other community contributions on platform engineering topics

Skills

  • Strong backend programming skills in languages such as Java, Go, Scala, Rust, or modern C++
  • Experience with distributed systems, microservices, and cloud-native architecture
  • Knowledge of database systems, caching, and load balancing
  • Experience with monitoring, logging, and observability tools
  • Ability to work collaboratively with cross-functional teams
