Software Engineer, Backend - Business Platform

Get to Know the Team

We're looking for a Backend Engineer to join our Business Platform team in Jakarta, Indonesia. The Business Platform powers the backend capabilities that enable businesses and enterprises to onboard, operate, grow, and serve consumers at scale across Southeast Asia.

Get to Know the Role

In this role, you will design, build, and evolve backend platform services that manage business profiles, store metadata, business configuration, and related operational workflows. You'll work on systems that sit close to the source of truth for business data and workflows—systems that directly influence how businesses set up their operations, how internal teams operate reliably, and how downstream products consume trusted business information. The ideal candidate will demonstrate strong ownership, pragmatic system design thinking, and a commitment to building platforms that simplify complexity rather than spread it around.

The Critical Tasks You Will Perform

• Design, build, and maintain low-latency RESTful/GraphQL APIs and distributed microservices capable of handling heavy traffic loads.
• Schema design, data modeling, and query optimization across relational (e.g., PostgreSQL) and NoSQL/caching databases (e.g., MongoDB, Redis).
• Set up automated monitoring, logging, and tracing to proactively diagnose bottlenecks, maintain security best practices, and resolve production outages.
• Manage automated CI/CD pipelines, containerized environments (Docker/Kubernetes), and cloud services (AWS/GCP/Azure) for smooth, reliable releases.
• Author comprehensive unit/integration tests, participate in code reviews, and write clear technical design documentation to manage technical debt.
