When you say backend would that mean you write lot of microservices in Java ? If not what else do you code and design to be industry labelled as 'back end Engineer'

Language doesn’t matter it’s mainly building backend of whatever product/system like the api layer, database interactions etc At coinbase they use golang apparently

You mean you need to select a team at start date?

Those who say infrastructure, what are the main things to work on there I’m not really into devops if that’s what it is, I like more application/product dev Are the projects mostly dev ops?

No, there’s platform and distributed systems work too. Eventually we will grow and keep creating new teams. Lots of room for growth in infra.
