• Data Management Systems (PostgreSQL, Elasticsearch, Cassandra, Kafka, etc.)
• Cloud Deployment using Kubernetes (with observability)
• Prior management experience is a plus

What’s In It For You

Our Partner Pay Model is fully transparent and designed for co-ownership, recognizing that professionals have unique needs. We balance profitability and growth by reinvesting annual profits to fuel expansion and fairly compensate our partners. With over 65% ownership already in the hands of our partners, we are committed to achieving 100% partner ownership. Moreover, our leadership team is legally obligated to buy back partner shares according to a formal liquidity plan. This ensures a clear path for those who choose to sell their stake in the company.
