Job Description
About the Role We're building a mobile-first information platform and are approaching production launch. We're looking for a Senior Backend Software Engineer to co-own our backend architecture and ensure the system is scalable, reliable, and production-ready. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys designing systems and running them in the real world — handling performance bottlenecks, debugging production issues, and improving reliability as usage grows. You'll work closely with a small team and have meaningful influence over architecture, infrastructure decisions, and engineering practices.
What You'll Do System Design & Scalability
* Review and improve backend system architecture for scale and reliability * Identify and resolve performance bottlenecks across services, databases, and caches * Design data models and APIs that scale as traffic and usage grow * Improve caching strategies and consistency patterns
Database & Performance
* Optimize MySQL schemas, queries, and indexing strategies * Analyze slow queries and improve transaction performance * Plan for read scaling (replicas, partitioning strategies, etc.)
Production Reliability & Operations
* Improve observability: logging, metrics, tracing, dashboards, and alerts * Debug and resolve production issues, including intermittent and edge-case failures * Design systems with resilience in mind (timeouts, retries, circuit breakers) * Participate in on-call and incident response as needed
Release Safety & Engineering Discipline
* Improve deployment safety (blue-green, canary, rollback strategies) * Design safe database migration and backward-compatible changes * Contribute to engineering best practices and post-incident improvements
Our Tech Stack
* Backend: Java, Spring Boot * Infrastructure: AWS ECS (Fargate), ALB, CloudWatch * Database: MySQL (RDS) * Caching: AWS ElastiCache (Redis) * Client: React Native (mobile) * CI/CD: GitHub Actions
Experience with similar stacks is welcome; deep backend and system design fundamentals matter most.
What We're Looking For Required
* 5+ years of backend engineering experience * Strong system design and distributed systems fundamentals * Experience building and operating production backend services * Solid understanding of relational databases and query optimization * Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred) * Ability to debug complex issues under real-world constraints * Fluent spoken Mandarin required; ability to participate in technical discussions and collaborate with Mandarin-speaking stakeholders.
Strong Plus
* Experience with Spring Boot in high-traffic systems * Hands-on experience with MySQL performance tuning * Experience with caching systems * Familiarity with observability tools (metrics, tracing, logging) * Startup or small-team experience with high ownership
