Role and Responsibilities
- Design, implement, and debug modern C++ microservices
- Maintain and evolve core microservices architecture and APIs
(REST/JSON, Pub/Sub) within a shared codebase
- Build and operate high-performance distributed systems on GCP
- Optimize low-latency services, including multithreading and
complex memory management
- Design, execute, and analyze performance, load, stress, and
scalability tests to identify bottlenecks and validate system behavior
under production-like workloads
- Perform application profiling and performance diagnostics,
driving continuous improvements in latency, throughput, resource
utilization, and overall system efficiency
- Maintain code quality and ensure systems remain secure,
observable, and integrated with platform services
- Create meaningful unit tests and maintain strong automated test
coverage
- Troubleshoot issues and participate in on-call support,
including warranty phases, if required
- Translate business requirements into scalable and maintainable
technical solutions for the travel and airline industry
- Collaborate with architects, product managers, and engineering
teams to deliver high-quality software solutions.
Approach and Behaviors
- Proactive
- Quality first mindset
- Continuous learner
- Dedicated team player
- Deliver results with minimal supervision
