• Build, test, and maintain robust, scalable web applications and microservices using PHP, Go, JavaScript, and MySQL
• Work closely with cross-functional teams to define, design, and ship new features that bridge our PHP and Go ecosystems
• Optimize application performance, security, and scalability, specifically leveraging Go for high-concurrency tasks
• Proactively troubleshoot and debug complex issues across different language environments to ensure smooth functionality

Experienced PHP Engineer, PHP, Go

• Rapid Digital Product Development: Build repeatable systems for creating AI-powered digital products (e.g., "sleep better" course/tool)
• Leverage existing platforms and APIs to automate: content aggregation, website generation, payment processing, AI chatbot integration
• Create product templates that can be replicated across different topics/verticals
• Integrate affiliate product recommendations and monetization flows
• Review, understand, and deploy third-party AI projects (example: deploying open-source AI marketing tools for campaign generation)

Senior Software Engineer, Python – LLM, Claude/OpenAI

• Ecosystem architecture: Build shared platform services, internal SDKs, and developer tooling that other teams adopt — your output multiplies squad output, not just your own.
• Quarterly initiative definition: Partner with engineering leadership, product, and finance to identify, scope, and prioritise platform investments with clear business outcomes (uptime = revenue, deploy frequency = faster GTM).
• Event-driven infrastructure: Own Kafka clusters end-to-end — topic design, partition strategy, consumer lag management, schema evolution, and failure recovery at scale.
• Caching & state layer: Lead Redis patterns across the org: cluster mode, pub/sub, distributed locks, eviction policies, and scripting for low-latency financial workloads.
• Engineering velocity: Drive DORA metrics practice — deploy frequency, lead time, change failure rate, and MTTR — turning data into quarterly engineering decisions, not just dashboards.
• Platform standards: Define and enforce observability, alerting, service mesh, and on-call standards across all squads. Write the RFCs and ADRs the org builds from.
• Build vs. buy decisions: Lead the evaluation of open-source tooling vs. custom builds — with a track record of getting both right.
• Fintech compliance: Embed audit trails, data residency, and PCI/SOC-aware patterns into platform design from day one, not as an afterthought.
• Mentorship at scale: Grow mid and senior engineers through architecture reviews, pairing, and written craft — making knowledge transfer a force multiplier, not a bottleneck.
