Job Requirements / Description
Dreamscape Learn, a pioneer in the realm of immersive virtual reality entertainment and learning design, is seeking a highly motivated Mid-Level Software Engineer to join our dynamic team. The ideal candidate will have strong backend development experience, specifically in REST API design and development, and a deep understanding of AWS architecture and design. You will play a key role in building scalable, high-performance applications while also designing and implementing the cloud infrastructure necessary to support them.
This role requires proficiency in Python and extensive hands-on experience with relational databases, preferably PostgreSQL. You should have a proven track record of owning projects from design through deployment, and the ability to work both independently and as part of a team.
Responsibilities
Design, develop, and maintain scalable RESTful APIs to support application functionality.
Architect, deploy, and maintain cloud infrastructure in AWS, ensuring robust security and performance.
Write efficient, reusable, and testable code in Python.
Manage and optimize relational databases, particularly PostgreSQL.
Take full ownership of projects, from gathering requirements to deploying in production.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure the backend aligns with frontend needs and overall system architecture.
Implement and maintain CI/CD pipelines to automate testing and deployment processes.
Monitor and troubleshoot issues across backend services and AWS infrastructure, ensuring uptime and reliability.
Stay updated with industry best practices in API development, cloud services, and database management.
Requirements
Undergraduate degree in Computer Science or equivalent engineering experience.
3-5 years of experience in backend software development.
Strong experience in Python and REST API development.
Proficiency with SQL and PostgreSQL databases, including query optimization and schema design.
Solid understanding of AWS services (e.g., EC2, S3, Lambda, RDS, IAM, VPC, etc.) and infrastructure as code (e.g., CloudFormation, Terraform).
Experience with containerization technologies (e.g., Docker) and orchestration tools like Kubernetes is a plus.
Demonstrated experience owning projects end-to-end, from design to deployment.
Familiarity with version control systems (e.g., Git), code review processes, and CI/CD tools.
Strong problem-solving skills, with the ability to diagnose and resolve production issues.
Excellent communication skills and ability to collaborate with team members and stakeholders.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with NoSQL databases (e.g., DynamoDB, MongoDB) is a plus.
Familiarity with microservices architecture and serverless frameworks.
Knowledge of frontend technologies and how they integrate with backend services is a bonus.
Benefits
Compensation $140,000 - $150,000 per annum (DOE)
Health/ dental/ vision insurance
Employee Assistance Program
Unlimited PTO
Perks at work
