  • Champion developer-centric thinking, focusing on usability and feedback loops to continually improve the experience.
  • Contribute to our team culture through documentation, demos, tech talks, and participation in hackathons, lab weeks and guild events.
  • Explore and make use of AI tools to innovate and enable efficient code writing and operationalize AI utilization in our software development process. 

What You’ll Bring

  • Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent experience.
  • 6+ years of experience in enterprise software development.
  • Hands-on proficiency with PythonJava, ReactNode.jsTypeScriptJavaScript, and Material UI.
  • Experience with REST APIsGraphQL, and WebSocket-based systems.

  • Strong understanding of secure development practices, including auth, encryption, and threat modeling.
  • Expertise in Microservice and Event-Driven Architectures.
  • 3+ years working with AWS cloud services.
  • Experience with LLM integration (e.g., using Python to call AI models) is a big plus.
  • Experienced and/or deep familiarity in building end-to-end software solutions across full software development lifecycle with continuous integration, test-driven development, and agile, scrum development methodologies
  • Open to using variety of open-source technologies and cloud services as needed
  • A good understanding of ETL processes and tools is a plus
  • Demonstrated skills and experience with debugging, root cause analysis, and performance optimization in Cloud, On-Premises or Hybrid platforms.
