- Extensive experience in platform architecture and systems design
- A strong understanding of JVM concurrency
- Knowledge of Kotlin coroutines

- Critical thinking and architectural foresight
- The ability to organize and perform large-scale refactoring in monorepos
We’d be especially thrilled if you have:
- Experience building developer tools
- Experience with different UI frameworks
- Knowledge of database internals
- Experience working with network applications
Why join JetBrains?
