Staff Backend Engineer (Scala) at BairesDev
We’re looking for a Staff Backend Engineer who writes Scala and has spent serious time inside the backend of distributed data processing systems — not just using them, but understanding how they work, where they break, and how to make them better.

- Architect and build backend components in Scala for distributed stream and batch data processing infrastructure.
- Own technical direction for backend data platform systems and drive best practices across engineering teams.
- Apply expert-level JVM knowledge to optimize the performance and reliability of backend processing components.
- Identify and resolve complex distributed system failures and performance bottlenecks in production.
- Lead cross-team technical initiatives and collaborate with platform teams to deliver high-impact backend improvements.
- Mentor engineers and support technical growth across the backend data platform organization.
What We Are Looking For:
- 7+ years of experience in IT roles.
- 5+ years of experience building backend systems with Scala as the primary language.
- Deep background in distributed systems architecture and large-scale data processing.
- Expert knowledge of stream and batch processing internals and production operations.
- Strong JVM performance skills applied to high-throughput backend systems.
- Apache ecosystem contribution experience is a plus.
- Proven cross-team technical leadership at a Staff or equivalent level.
- Advanced proficiency in English.
