Deep understanding of complex backend PHP/Hack systems.
Proficiency in advanced
SQL
query construction and optimization.
Expertise in debugging, static analysis, and privacy-focused code validation.
Preferred Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in
Computer Science
or related technical field.
Experience with large-scale, backend system debugging or privacy compliance work.
