We are working with a stealth tech company building a high-performance, real-time platform - and they're looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to own the heart of their system.

* Owning your infrastructure using Terraform / IaC
* Designing APIs and core backend logic
* Profiling and optimizing systems to shave off milliseconds and reduce compute costs
If you enjoy seeing the direct impact of your work, this role will provide that every day.
Who they're looking for:
* Strong experience with Rust (ownership, lifetimes, async)
* Experience with serverless / event-driven architectures
* Comfortable with AWS (Lambda, DynamoDB, SQS, API Gateway)
* A performance-first mindset - profiling and optimization is part of your DNA
* Spanish-speaking (team communicates in Spanish)
* Self-motivated and able to work xqysrnh remotely from Spain
