Estimated from BLS employment for this occupation and area, per-skill prevalence across our listing corpus, and published wage benchmarks — as of Jul 29, 2026. It is a model, not a headcount.
Why we read it this way (6)
The role is based in India ('one of India's largest consumer internet platforms'); US benchmarks will not apply.
The 3–5 year experience range maps to a Mid-level band; the scope (owning production microservices end-to-end, p99 targets, incident RCAs) is consistent with that level rather than Senior.
The 'Must Have' section requires hands-on experience with at least two technologies from the list: Kafka/similar queues, Redis/Memcached, Cassandra, MongoDB, DynamoDB, Elasticsearch. All are marked required, but the 'at least two' qualifier means a candidate need not hold all of them — the alternatives field on the Cassandra skill captures the full interchangeable set from that group.
Redis and Memcached are listed as explicit alternatives in the posting ('Redis or Memcached'); captured accordingly.
Docker, Kubernetes, AWS/GCP, gRPC, and CI/CD appear under 'Good to Have' and are marked preferred.
No compensation, employment type, or specific city was stated in the posting.
