- Experience with caching layers (Memcached, Redis)
- Proven ability to build and optimize systems operating at high scale and throughput
- In-depth understanding of web development and HTTP protocols
- Experience with Linux server environments, including navigating consoles, reading logs, and
troubleshooting production issues
- Experience and/or knowledge with front-end languages such as JS/TypeScript, HTML, CSS
- Willingness to jump in on any project, when needed, regardless of code quality
Preferred Qualifications:
- Knowledge of video technologies, containers, codecs, and live streaming
- Experience with NGINX configuration and optimization
- Experience with WebSocket for real-time communication
- Experience in BASH scripting and automation

- Familiarity with static analysis tools (e.g., PHPStan) and modern PHP coding standards
Desired Qualifications:
- Degree in Computer Science/Engineering or related field
- Experience migrating or modernizing legacy PHP codebases
