Job Summary
We are seeking a Lead Backend Developer focused on high-throughput platform development to design, build, and operate the foundational platforms and shared services that other engineering teams rely on to deliver their products. This role focuses on building backend platform capabilities — request routing, traffic management, data fan-out, caching layers, asynchronous job execution, and durable event processing — that must handle very high traffic volumes with predictable latency and minimal operational toil. The ideal candidate combines deep distributed systems expertise with strong platform-engineering instincts, values internal developer experience as a first-class concern, and has a track record of leading multi-quarter platform initiatives that meaningfully raise the engineering bar for the organizations they support.
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a closely related technical discipline.
- Six or more years of professional backend or platform engineering experience.
- Demonstrated track record building and operating internal platforms or shared services consumed by multiple engineering teams.
- Strong, hands-on expertise designing distributed systems with rigorous attention to consistency, availability, latency, and failure-mode behavior.
- Advanced proficiency in at least one major backend language such as Java, Go, Scala, Rust, or modern C++.
- Deep understanding of high-throughput messaging, streaming, and event-driven architectures using technologies such as Kafka, Pulsar, or NATS.
- Strong working knowledge of data storage systems across relational, key-value, document, and search workloads.
- Proven experience leading multi-quarter platform initiatives across teams, including stakeholder management and technical decision-making.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, including ability to author crisp technical design documents and present trade-offs clearly.
- Demonstrated ability to mentor engineers and shape engineering culture through code review, design review, and onboarding contributions.
- Experience operating Kubernetes-based platforms or contributing to internal developer-platform initiatives at scale.
- Contributions to widely-used open-source platform or infrastructure projects.
- Familiarity with control-plane / data-plane patterns, service mesh internals, or workflow-orchestration engines.
- Experience designing platform APIs with strong backward-compatibility and versioning guarantees.
- Public technical writing, conference talks, or other community contributions on platform engineering topics.

Prepare your application
Use the description above to assess your fit for Bright Vision Technologies. This checklist is guidance from Resumize, rather than additional requirements from the employer. Imported listings can be shortened or change after collection, so confirm the complete description and current availability before sending an application.
Match requirements to evidence
Identify the responsibilities and skills the employer explicitly names. For each important requirement, choose one example from your work, education, training, or projects. Explain what you did, how you did it, and what changed as a result. Include a measurable outcome when you can support it. If you lack a requirement, describe related experience accurately instead of adding an unfamiliar skill to your resume.
Put the most relevant examples near the top of your resume. Keep job titles, dates, qualifications, and contact details consistent across your application materials. Use the employer’s terminology when it describes your experience accurately; a copied list of keywords does not explain your contribution. A short, specific bullet is easier to review than a paragraph that mixes several unrelated duties.
Check the working arrangement
Confirm the location, schedule, employment type, and any eligibility requirements on the employer’s site. A remote label does not establish worldwide eligibility or flexible hours. If compensation, benefits, equipment, travel, or contract duration are missing from this listing, write down your questions for the recruiter. Do not assume details from another opening at the same company apply to this role.
Review before submitting
Follow the employer’s requested file format and application instructions. Open your exported resume and check that its text is selectable, its sections read in order, and its links work. Proofread names, dates, and contact information. Share confidential work samples only when you have permission, and use an anonymized example when necessary.
Submit through a trusted employer or recruiting destination. If the original listing has disappeared, search the employer’s careers page for the title rather than assuming the vacancy remains open. Save the application date, job reference, and the version of your resume you sent. Those details help you prepare for a later conversation and avoid submitting conflicting information through several job boards.
Review your resume for writing and readability feedback, or browse other openings if this opportunity is unavailable.
