Senior Scala Engineer

Wymagania:
- Strong Scala skills, with production experience using an effect system (Cats Effect, ZIO, or Akka/Pekko) — we care more about depth of understanding than years on your CV.
- Experience designing or significantly contributing to event-driven systems in production — comfortable reasoning about ordering guarantees, idempotency, replay, and failure modes.
- Strong working knowledge of Apache Kafka — not just as a consumer API, but understanding partitioning, delivery guarantees, consumer groups, rebalance issues, and consumer lag.
- Hands-on Kubernetes skills sufficient to independently diagnose pod issues, resource limits, HPA behavior, and networking.
- Experience with both SQL and NoSQL databases, with a clear sense of when each is the right tool.
- Experience with microservices architecture, including awareness of common pitfalls (distributed transactions, eventual consistency, contract versioning).
- Ability to design for scale and growth — partitioning, sharding, tenant isolation, backpressure.
- Strong debugging and troubleshooting skills in distributed environments.

Mile widziane:
- Solid grasp of JVM internals — GC behavior, profiling, heap and thread dump analysis.
- Experience with observability: distributed tracing (OpenTelemetry, Jaeger), structured logging, metrics — for us this is core to daily work.
- Experience working in a cloud environment (Azure / GCP) — our stack runs primarily on AKS.
