Job Description

As a Senior Backend Engineer you will:

  • Migrate hundreds of millions of legacy users to the new identity system, automatically claiming existing usernames while safely handling validation errors and edge cases.

  • Implement fallback logic for users without a set username, ensuring every account has a unique and valid identifier.

  • Provide immutable, unrecognizable URL identifiers that are safe for public-facing profiles.

  • Integrate username and identifier generation into the account lifecycle so that every new account automatically receives a unique username and corresponding URL identifier.

  • Work with data pipelines and large-scale processing systems to ensure reliable, high-performance migration and synchronization of identity data.

  • Collaborate with engineers, product managers, and cross-functional teams to ensure seamless integration, scalability, and system safety.

Qualifications
  • Experienced Senior Backend Engineer skilled in designing, building, and operating large-scale distributed systems in Java.

  • Adept at writing clean, maintainable, and testable code, with a strong focus on system reliability and performance.

  • Experienced in designing for scalability, resilience, and observability, with hands-on experience managing large volumes of data.

  • Able to lead technical design discussions, influence architecture, and collaborate effectively across multiple teams and domains.

  • Comfortable taking end-to-end ownership of complex projects — from design and implementation to production and maintenance.

  • Pragmatic and outcome-oriented, balancing technical quality, delivery speed, and user impact.

  • Passionate about user identity, data integrity, and building robust backend systems that support safe and social user experiences.
