• Write unit and integration tests and keep the CI pipeline green.
• Maintain REST and gRPC APIs used by internal teams and outside partners.
• Mentor junior engineers through pairing and code review.

• Strong skills in at least one of Python, Java, Go, C# or TypeScript.

• BS in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• Willing to join the on-call rotation once ramped up.
