• Hands-on experience with Supabase, Firebase, PostgreSQL, Redis, Kafka, or similar systems.
• Proven experience in scaling applications from thousands to millions of users.
• Strong understanding of real-time systems, caching, queues, and database optimization.
• Comfortable with cloud environments (AWS, GCP, or similar).
• Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to work in an early-stage, fast-moving startup.
• Passion for building products that impact millions of users globally.
Bonus Points

• Work on complex backend challenges with the freedom to choose and implement solutions.
• Build products that are trusted, ethical, and community-focused.
• Flexible work culture with a high degree of ownership.
