We utilize Kafka for high-throughput messaging and background processing alongside Bull (Redis), with analytics stored in ClickHouse and Elasticsearch enhancing our search capabilities.

Your Role

You will tackle complex challenges within a high-load, distributed system, building and scaling the infrastructure that enables millions in donations. This is not a maintenance role; it’s about innovation and growth.
