Description

Key Responsibilities

• Develop secure, production-grade code; conduct thorough code reviews and enforce engineering standards
• Build and maintain highly available, scalable services with strong operational excellence
• Implement and govern authentication/authorization using OIDC/OAuth2, JWTs, and service-to-service security patterns
• Establish observability practices (structured logging, metrics, tracing) and incident response readiness
• Partner with Product and UX to translate requirements into technical plans and manage trade-offs
• Evaluate vendor and internal solutions for architectural fit, security posture, and scalability

Required Skills

• Frontend: React (modern patterns), TypeScript, state management, component design systems, performance optimization

• Event-Driven: AWS Kafka/MSK — topics, consumer groups, schema evolution, DLQs, monitoring
• CI/CD: Git, automated testing (unit/integration/contract/e2e), feature flags, progressive rollout
• AI-Assisted Engineering (MUST): Hands-on proficiency with Claude Code and/or GitHub Copilot for development acceleration, debugging, refactoring, and test generation

Preferred Skills

• Infrastructure as Code: Terraform, CloudFormation, CDK
• Containerization and orchestration: Docker, ECS, EKS
