• Lead as a technical subject-matter expert, mentoring engineers and sharing knowledge through workshops, guilds, and collaborative forums.

• Design and implement innovative, scalable solutions as part of a cross-functional squad, using technologies like GraphQL, modern data access layers, and cloud-native services on AWS.

• Work with a DevSecOps mindset, owning the full lifecycle—you build it, you secure it, you test it, and you run it—with a strong grasp of CI/CD, automated testing, infrastructure pipelines, logging, and monitoring.

• Leverage AI-assisted development tools such as GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Figma AI, and others to accelerate delivery and improve code quality is highly desirable.

• Think outside the box, challenge the status quo, and bring a creative mindset to solving complex problems.

We use a broad range of tools, languages, and frameworks. We don't expect you to know them all but experience or exposure with some of these will set you up for success in this team:

• Expert in SDLC and Agile methods with broader experience around architecture, design, implementation, deployment, integration, and technology transformations.

• Full cycle design experience: design, build, challenge and run essential.

• Full Stack Development: Strong expertise in Next.js, and .NET Core/C# with experience designing scalable microservices and APIs (GraphQL & REST).

• Cloud & DevOps: Hands-on experience with AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD tools like GitHub Actions, TeamCity, and Jenkins.

• Database & API Design: Proficient in PostgreSQL, Oracle, and modern data access patterns.

• Monitoring & Observability: Familiar with tools like Prometheus, Grafana, Splunk, and AWS CloudWatch.

• AI Technologies: Hands-on experience with coding agents and automation is highly desirable. A strong technical mindset and willingness to adopt AI in daily workflows is equally valued.

• Secure Engineering & DevSecOps: Deep understanding of security principles, DevSecOps, and SRE practices.

• Agile Delivery & Testing: Proven experience with TDD/BDD, automated testing, service virtualization, and cloud-native application development.

• Understanding of hardware-software integration concepts, even without hands-on experience, is highly valued —especially in uplifting and enhancing existing system functionality.
