Role Overview

As a Staff Engineer, you’ll play a key role in shaping technical direction, modernizing legacy systems, and driving backend platform scalability.

  • Working with messaging and caching systems (RabbitMQ, Kafka, Redis)
  • Designing and optimizing data layers with MongoDB or Cosmos DB
  • Deploying and maintaining applications in Docker-based environments
  • Driving best practices for cloud-native development on AWS and Azure
  • Advocating AI-first workflows in engineering processes
  • Collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver features and platform improvements

What should you bring with you?

  • A strong foundation in software development principles, architecture, and system design
  • Interest in AI tools like GitHub Copilot, Cursor, or similar
  • Startup mindset — ambiguity, short cycles, fast delivery
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills
  • Hands-on expertise in:
  • Java (8–17), Spring, Linux
  • Redis, RabbitMQ or Kafka
  • MongoDB or Cosmos DB
  • Docker, backend deployment, AWS & Azure
  • Multi-skilled mindset and enthusiasm for coding and technology exploration

Why work at Codewalla?

  • Be part of AI-native product development: Integrate AI tools into how we design, build, and ship
  • Global exposure: Directly collaborate with US-based startups, VCs, and product teams
