Job Details

Backend Developer for Yandex Routing (RouteQ) team focusing on monitoring and real-time courier movement. Tasks include designing distributed systems, APIs, and working with high-load databases (PostgreSQL). Requires C++ knowledge.

Yandex Routing is a service for building and optimizing routes. We are looking for a developer for the monitoring team - a tool for controlling route execution and real-time courier movement. What tasks await you: • Designing distributed fault-tolerant systems High uptime is a basic requirement: launching any features should not reduce stability. We incorporate resilience mechanisms: fallbacks, rate limiting, timeouts, retries with backoff, idempotency. • Designing extensible and easy-to-integrate APIs We develop APIs used by hundreds of clients. This imposes constraints when designing changes. We need to think about pagination, filters, sorting, formats, and quotas. • Working with high-load databases It will be necessary to optimize PostgreSQL performance under high load: work with EXPLAIN/ANALYZE, query plans and indexes, eliminate locks and transaction concurrency issues. It is necessary to solve complex operational cases (table growth, vacuum/autovacuum tuning, partitioning, replication) and develop data architecture.

We expect you to: • Know algorithms and data structures • Know how to and love to write code in C++
