We have the autonomy to choose the technologies and processes that help us achieve our objectives. So each team leverages the technology that fits their needs best. You'll see us working with data processing / streaming like Kinesis; application technologies like PostgreSQL, Redis & DynamoDB; and breaking things using in-house chaos principles and tools such as Gatling to drive load all deployed and hosted on AWS. Many of our teams are advocates of functional programming, so you can expect to join a team that's applying principles from FP to build these services: using Scala, Cats, ZIO, http4s, FS2, and Cats Effect.
