  • We touch all parts of the Etsy web stack (PHP, MySQL and JavaScript) as well as Etsy services using Apache Kafka (Java, GKE). You'll need to be able to switch between thinking about highly scalable event-driven architecture and reliable and adaptable user experiences built using standard methodologies including accessibility and localization.
