  • Support deployment processes and ongoing system maintenance

Required Qualifications

  • Strong experience working with large-scale MySQL databases
  • Deep understanding of query optimization, indexing strategies, and performance tuning
  • Experience handling high-volume data and production-critical systems
  • Strong understanding of backend architecture and API design
  • Experience building and consuming RESTful APIs
  • Familiarity with front-end integration using React
  • Experience with version control systems (Git)
  • Strong problem-solving and debugging skills
  • Ability to communicate effectively and work collaboratively

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience working with large, legacy PHP codebases
  • Familiarity with replication, sharding, or other scaling strategies in MySQL
  • Experience with asynchronous processing, queues, or background jobs
  • Familiarity with AI coding tools such as Copilot in VS code or Claude Code
  • Understanding of web security best practices
  • Experience working in high-traffic environments
  • Exposure to cloud infrastructure (AWS or similar)
