Sr Dev & Backend Architect

You have experience developing and architecting multi-tenant, cloud-based B2B applications. You have worked on real-time, distributed, messaging-based systems, and are still hands-on in those areas. You deeply understand the security and performance designs for a system with a large user base hitting both an API and web front-end end-points, with client updates needed in real-time at very low latency.
